Help get KOSA smashed to oblivion.

You make a difference in this. Every call and email counts. If you are UNDER 18 you can still call and email. If you’re queer or trans, please call. This bill will affect trans and queer youth. It will make being queer unsafe at home and on the internet.

Mercy is a luxury not afforded to the people of Palestine. The United States is contributing to the suffering. If you live in the United States and you want to demand a ceasefire, look online to find who your senator is, then call the Capitol Switchboard at (202) 224-3121 to be put in contact with them. If you have phone anxiety, which I totally understand, you can still demand a ceasefire. Go to the link below and put your senator's name into the search bar to find their contact information. Together, we can make our representatives represent us accurately.

Free Palestine. Ceasefire now.

When contacting your reps in support of Palestine, I would like to remind everyone from the US:

BIDEN IS SUPPOSED TO REPRESENT US TOO.

You can email the White House here.

I know this feels like a really small drop in a really big bucket, but it honestly takes less than five minutes, and it is something that we can do to make our voices heard.

Urge Your Senators to Support the Women’s Health Protection Act Now!

The U.S. Supreme Court is preparing its response to Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, which is likely to overturn Roe v. Wade. The Senate has responded by re-introducing the Women’s Health Protection Act (WHPA) for a potential vote next week. WHPA would prohibit states from passing medically unjustified restrictions on reproductive health care, which are proliferating across the country. It passed in the House September of 2021 and was blocked through the filibuster in the Senate February of this year. 

We need your help in urging your United States Senators to support the Women’s Health Protection Act.

The final decision from SCOTUS could be devastating for all physicians and their patients. We are already seeing physicians criminalized for providing care and counseling patients, resulting in grave access inequities.

Contact your Senators TODAY and urge them to support the Women’s Health Protection Act when it is introduced in the upcoming days.

Please contact your governors or representatives if you live in one of these states and demand they stop this racist anti-immigrant bullshit!

Greg Abbot needs to know that this is a humanitarian issue and not a military invasion like he is treating it!

[straightfromthetorturedpoetsdept]

Please if you live in america right now, take 1 minute to google contact senator and click on the first link, put in your state and follow the link to your senator's website. Look for a menu option, then click contact or share your opinion/thoughts.

Subject: Abolish The Court

Message: I believe very strongly that it is up to all senators with a moral compass to urge President Biden to charge the 6 criminals on the court who swore under oath that they would uphold the constitution and follow established legal president for the right to privacy and freedom from government and corporate oversight into our Healthcare decisions. Democrats have the majority in congress and the presidency. If you do not act to protect hundreds of millions of Americans, be prepared to lose your job this November. We will vote you out for people who can protect us. I think it's especially disgusting that President Biden and the democrats are allowing RAPISTS to make decisions on the Healthcare options of women. You have the power to stop the fascists in power from hurting millions of Americans any more than they currently have. Fucking do something about it.

Note: even if you live in the same house as someone else, please send in a new form for each member of your household. The more messages they get with subject line abolish the court, the more likely they will read it.

You don't have to stick to the message but please try to get the general information I included in there.

Edit: all you fucking anarchists who want to comment some bullshit like "this is a waste of time," are some of the biggest all talk, no action bitches alive.

If you can't be bothered to use ALL the tools at your disposal, please stop pretending like you're an actual activist. Even if you think this will do nothing (and it probably won't), fucking DO IT ANYWAYS. It's bitches like you who act like you're so tough but don't offer anything other than "let's revolt" as an option for people.

Contact your senators to support H.R.3755 - Women's Health Protection Act of 2021

The Women's Health Protection Act would codify Roe v. Wade by prohibiting bans and medically unnecessary restrictions that single out abortion and impede access to care. The House passed the Women’s Health Protection Act on September 24, 2021, and since then it has been pending before the Senate.

A concrete action you can take now, if you are a U.S. citizen, is to contact your senators and let them know that you support passing this bill and making it law.

We say contact them in any way you feel comfortable doing. Call, email, write. Most senators have staff who tally up all communications, and the method will not make much difference.

Links will be in the notes, including a link to find your senators' contact info, and a link to the full text of the bill. We always support reading the legalese and making sure you're on board before you put your voice behind something.

The House is expecting a pass a bill that would solidify abortion rights. However, it may get shot down in the Senate again. Please for the love of God, contact your senators and put pressure on them to approve it. A similar bill was struck down in the Senate 51 to 49. If we can literally convince only 2 more senators to vote in favor of this, abortion will become a constitutional right. Please contact your senators and don't let up until they agree to vote yes.

Yalls just realized that the KOSA bill is tmrw, just so yalls know that if it does get passed I’m deleting my tumblr and ao3 on the 6th. It was fun while it lasted but I just wanna be safe. I don’t wanna risk anything so this will be the inevitable. I really do hope that this bill will NOT pass.

(I made a mistake😢😨)

What's new(ish) in the settler-colonial state of the US is that a series of bills have been passed in the House (the Baby Senate as I like to say) and are on their way to the Senate that make it harder to voice support for Palestinians while also making sure your direct taxes aid the genocide in Gaza.

These bills affirm the US's stance on the settler-colonial Zionist Entity and the implicit ties that the government has with Israel and really — just goes to show you how Israel is just one big base for American Imperialism.

Anyways, there's still time to call your senate and tell them that you don't want these bills that only further spiral the US into fascism so even if you think it might not do much — it's important that we document our dissent in official sources. And while you're at it — call your congressperson and tell them that if they voted for this you're not voting for them next election. If they voted against the bills, still call your congresspeople and tell them you support their decision to vote against these bills.

Here are the bills:

📍Resolution: HR 6126

Resolution Name: Israel Security Supplemental Appropriations Act Description: Gives $14.3 Billion To Israel From The IRS (Taxes You Pay). Like straight up. Just takes it from an IRS project, which used our tax dollars to begin with, to give to Israel "defense." Link to check summary: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/118/hr6126

📍Resolution: HR 798

Resolution Name: "Condemning the support of Hamas, Hezbollah, and other terrorist organizations at institutions of higher education, which may lead to the creation of a hostile environment for Jewish students, faculty, and staff." Description: Will Penalize Students On American College Campuses For Supporting Palestine. This includes "Free Palestine" Protests as according to Rep Owens who introduced the bill (Click). Link to check who voted: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/votes/118-2023/h578

📍Resolution: HR 3266

Resolution Name: "Tolerance in Palestinian Education Act" Description: They will be examining Palestinian education materials to see if it promotes "hate" or "violence" (aka are they teaching their children to become murderers??). Will inevitably require Revision Of Text Books In Palestinian Schools To Portray The Occupation In A Positive Light. Link to summary: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/118/hr3266

📍Resolution: HR 340

Resolution Name: "The Hamas International Financing Prevent Action" Description: Claims to stop financial support for "terrorist" organizations but considering that Gaza's government is run by Hamas, then this would mean Gaza will receive absolutely no aid and donating to people in Gaza could get you in legal trouble. Link to summary: https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/118/hr340

There's a button for most of these bills that allows you to contact your representative directly. Please do take the time to contact them — while many of this isn't especially new to Palestinians, the difference is now that we have a larger power in numbers than we did in the past. Please make sure to advocate for you Palestinian comrades in the US whenever possible! Help us Free Palestine one step at a time!
