It's been a busy past few weeks for the US Campaign and our member groups. The United Methodist Church and Presbyterian Church both passed resolutions calling for a boycott of all products made in Israeli settlements in the occupied territories. TIAA-CREF's decision toremove Caterpillar from its Social Choice Funds portfolio was a big victory for the We Divest Campaign. With the help Jewish Voice for Peace, St. Louis Palestine Solidarity Committee, and American Muslims for Palestine, we delivered more than 17,000 signatures to the State Department protesting U.S. and Israeli discriminatory policies. 

Register today to help continue our efforts to change U.S. policy to support human rights, international law, and equality. Make sure you book your hotel room by August 21 to be guaranteed a special conference rate. Also invite your friends on Facebook and your followers on Twitter using #ETO2012.

We look forward to having you join us in St. Louis September 21-23!  

In Peace and Solidarity,
