It stands poised to invade Rafah and complete its ethnic cleansing of Gaza.

The Biden administration has supported, funded, and armed Israel’s genocide. Unite to stop Israel’s war! Stand with Palestinians in their struggle for liberation! Join the campaign to get Vermont’s cities, organizations, unions, and faith groups to adopt the Apartheid Free Pledge.
