Bob Sanders, a Jewish 69-year-old former reporter and founder of Not In My Name, NH, a group that produced a letter signed by 87 Jews opposing Israel’s policies is biking from Hew Hampshire to Washington DC.
Ride Against War in Gaza (RAW GAZA) will take to the streets on two wheels with a message for Congress: Stop sending US tax dollars to back Israel’s devastation of Gaza and the West Bank.
The 17-day 650-mile urban trek started from Concord, NH on August 24, and is traveling through major East Coast cities and universities, arriving in Washington, DC, by 9/9, the day when Congress convenes.
Bob will be in Philadelphia September 5th and will take part in the Annual Baltimore Avenue Dollar Stroll
If you are outraged about Gaza, we invite you to come out and meet Bob. Look for the Peace, Justice, Sustainability Banner where we will have a
petition and information on Bob’s ride and the current situation in Israel/Gaza and what people can do about it. We want to stop the violence and the killing and bring home the hostages. Bob will be around, probably biking from place to place with some of us. We will be in touch with him from our location.
On-Line Virtual Lobby Days. SIgn up here We will be lobbying Members of Congress on zoom from 11-4 on July 9th through the 12th, 2024. Our goal is to build Congressional support for taking bold and effective action on nuclear weapons and climate, signing the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (TPNW) and supporting the creation and negotiations for a Fossil Fuel Treaty which would phase out the burning of fossil fuels.
Members of Congress can show their support by signing the ICAN Pledge, by co-sponsoring the "Warheads to Windmills" bill, H.R. 2775, and H.Res. 77. We are aiming for a "special order hour" on September 26th, the International Day for the Total Elimination of Nuclear Weapons, during which Members of Congress have an hour to speak on a speak on a specific topic. Thanks for helping with this effort!

Join the Climate Action Campaign and partners for a Climate Solutions Now Earth Day Rally in Philadelphia on April 21st from 1-4pm at Franklin Square as we celebrate the great strides that have been made to combat climate change and the need for continued ambition to tackle the climate crisis.
We will be promoting dual action to save the future from the twin threats of the Climate Emergancy AND the spread and use of nuclaer weapons.
Congress is hearing from the pro-peace, pro-ceasefire majority and it is STILL dragging its feet even as the war continues to claim tens of thousands of Palestinian lives, life-saving aid is impeded, innocent people die from starvation, and the International Court of Justice has warned that urgent and immediate actions must be taken to protect Palestinians from genocide.
This is unacceptable - we must stand up for peace and justice.
