From Small Steps to Giant Leaps

Dear Milena,

50,000! That's how many of us now receive the US Campaign's action alerts and biweekly networking newsletter,Occupation End Notes – plus much, much more.

Back in 2001, when a handful of us took the first steps in a campaign to hold our government accountable for its policies toward the Palestinians, who knew that our coalition would grow to more than 325 member groups and 50,000 voices for peace and justice? We've come such a long way...

Every day this phenomenal coalition calls upon our elected officials to uphold human rights, and upon society to get behind the Palestinian nonviolent freedom movement through the tactics of "Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions" (BDS).
So Milena, here's an offer we hope you won't refuse:

Help us to help you make the change we all seek by growing this coalition. Tell 10 friends to sign up today!

Let's demand U.S. policies that uphold human rights, international law and equality. And let's keep growing in numbers and strength until those elected officials do what's right!

Our milestone of 50,000 supporters would have been unreachable without the Campaign's fabulous staff. I want to recognize especially the Campaign's Communications Director Joshua Hough, who helped to grow our list by 15,000 since last August.

Nor could we succeed without our dedicated Steering Committee and diverse Advisory Board.

...Nor without YOU! So take a moment today to bring 10 more advocates into our community today.

In solidarity,

Nadia Hijab
Co-founder and Advisory Board member
