Congressional leadership has made a grave political error, and made the human rights crisis in Palestine worse by inviting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to address a joint session on July 24.

Citi, the main focus of our Summer of Heat actions in New York City this summer, is also funding genocide and war in Gaza.

We’ve been pushing for weeks to pass a version of President Biden’s Build Back Better Act with no cuts to climate, care, jobs or justice. Last week Sen Manchin and his Republican forced Biden to cut another ~$1.5 trillion from the bill, but there’s still a lot worth fighting for. The only thing keeping Manchin …
