We are honored to share that we are joining the Labor for Palestine National Network @laborforpalestine!
We join them and worker organizations across sectors and communities to answer the urgent call from Palestinian trade unions in:
1. Demanding an immediate end to the siege on Gaza and to all U.S. military aid for Israel
2. Following the example of Block the Boat, ILWU West Coast dockers, and workers around the world who refuse to build or transport weapons destined for Israel.
3. Respecting the Palestinian-led BDS picket line by severing ties with Israel’s racist labor federation, the Histadrut and its US mouthpiece, the Jewish Labor Committee, and by divesting from Israel Bonds and industries connected with Zionist settler colonialism and occupation.
We express our uncompromising solidarity with the Palestinian people in their righteous struggle for self-determination. As workers, we understand it is our moral responsibility to leverage our labor to end the genocide and Israeli settler colonial project. 🇵🇸
