‼️80 years of nuclear weapons is enough.‼️
On July 23rd, Rep. Jim McGovern will be hosting a Special Order on nuclear weapons on the House Floor. Call your Representatives and urge them to join him on the floor calling for nuclear justice and nuclear disarmament.

Call the capitol switchboard and ask for your representative.

Template script:
“Hello, my name is [name] I am a constituent from [town/city, state]. I am calling to ask that [he/she] participate in an upcoming opportunity to speak on nuclear disarmament.

Rep. Jim McGovern’s office is organizing a special order on nuclear weapons on July 23rd. I want to urge the Representative to speak at this event.

This summer marks 80 years of living under the threat of nuclear armageddon, and 80 years of lasting harm. It is crucial to speak out at this time especially in light of the growing nuclear tensions around the world. The United States spends more money than the rest of the world combined on our nuclear weapons. We must end nuclear weapons before they end us.

Please join this event with Rep. McGovern and speak out on this issue”

Read the book to see all the pieces already in place moving us toward nuclear abolition, and the concrete steps that could get us there.

‼️New Divestment event Next Week‼️
Register at the link in our bio

Divestment is a powerful tool being used around the world to put pressure on the companies driving damage to people and planet.

Municipal Divestment has a strong history of moving our money out of humanitarian and environmental crises. Getting your city to shift funds away from unethical systems sends a clear message about what we value as a society. Hear 3 stories of successful city divestment campaigns across the country that took a stand against companies complicit in the climate crisis, the threat of nuclear war, and the genocide in Gaza. Examine where these campaigns intersected, the lessons we learned, and how we can build a strong and focused movement of institutional pressure to protect people and the planet.

See you soon!
