Stop the Genocide – Statewide Rallies

Thu March 7 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm EST

Stop the Genocide – Rallies at Congressional Offices

Thursday, March 7, noon, for most locations – See below for details

Weather update, March 6, 7pm: Moderate rain is forecast but most locations are going forward with rallies on Thursday.  See details below.

As the circumstances in Gaza are continuing to worsen, with nowhere left for Palestinians to go, Israel continues its threat of expulsion or certain death for the 2 million people living in Gaza. This cannot go on – the genocide must be stopped.

For the last five months, a ceasefire has been demanded across borders by millions, yet it has not been enough. We need to amplify our voices by coming together in sync, and demanding our government to stand on the right side of justice.

We demand a ceasefire for Gaza, with no more assault on Rafah, a complete halt to U.S. military aid and weapons for Israel, and a resumption of U.S. funding for the U.N. Palestinian refugee agency! 

Sign Up

The time is now to strengthen our organizing and come together to demand a permanent ceasefire, an end to the siege on Gaza!
