SUMMARY:People's Hunger Strike
DESCRIPTION:Healthcare workers\, healthcare organizations and community groups based in Boston are launching a Hunger Strike in Boston beginning on Thursday\, September 4th. Palestinians are being starved to death and are calling for an international hunger strike in solidarity. We must act NOW and escalate the political pressure to put an end to the genocide that is taking place before our very eyes. \nWe Demand \n\nSenators Elizabeth Warren and Ed Markey to introduce a Senate version of the Block the Bombs Act (H.R. 3565) to block the Trump administration from delivering major US weapons to Israel – bombs\, tank rounds\, and artillery shells – which it has used in its mass killing of Palestinians in Gaza.\nRepresentative Katherine Clark\, Democratic Party Whip\, to co-sponsor the Block the Bombs Act\n\nSuccessive cohorts of strikers will engage in 7-day fasts\, to create a continuous collective hunger strike. The strikers will be offered practical support and medical monitoring. There will be press conferences\, art activities\, and poetry readings\, all in order to highlight our action and the atrocities that are happening every day in Gaza. \nJoin us for our launch outside the JFK Federal Building starting September 4th at 11am. Following the launch on the 4th\, there will be daily standouts Monday through Friday from 3-5pm. \nClick below to find more information on how to join and support the strike. \n \nRefer to this website for up to date information on the strike\, and click here to see schedule details as well as weekend events.

SUMMARY:Tell Rep. Auchincloss: STOP THE ECOCIDE! STOP THE GENOCIDE! BLOCK THE BOMBS!
DESCRIPTION:This Friday morning\, September 5th\, Jake Auchincloss will give the keynote address at a private event inside One Beacon St. about toxic “forever chemicals” and the danger they present to our communities.\nJoin us at the corner of Beacon and Tremont Streets as we greet attendees\, pass out flyers\, and hold signs that call out Rep. Auchincloss\, an intractable supporter of Israel’s ecocide\, genocide and industrial scale bombardment of Palestinians in Gaza!\nRepresentative Auchincloss:\n– Has voted for every bill of US weapons shipments to Israel \n– Rejects the Block the Bombs Act to stop U.S. weapons to Israel despite 92% of Democrats supporting this measure (Gallup poll\, July 2025)\n– Finally signed – after months of public pressure – H.Res.473 for urgent delivery of humanitarian aid to Gaza\, a measure too-little\, too late.\n– Has received $694\,041 from AIPAC and other lobbying groups on behalf of the Israeli state\, over 5x more than the next highest recipient in the MA delegation. (https://www.trackaipac.com/states/massachusetts) \nYes\, I’ll be there!
