  1. Tell Congress: Stop Ted Cruz’s Plan to Criminalize Protest

    actionnetwork.org/letters/tell

    >> Now, Senator Ted Cruz is pushing a terrifying plan that could criminalize protests just like [No Kings]. Cruz has introduced legislation to weaponize federal law against protesters — and it could make speaking out a crime.

    >> He wants to twist anti-racketeering laws — laws meant to stop the mob — to target protest organizers and immigrant rights advocates. If he gets his way, Americans could be arrested for simply organizing a peaceful protest.

    >> Let’s call this what it is: an attack on democracy. Ted Cruz and his Republican allies are trying to scare people into silence — to shut down the growing movements demanding justice, equality, and accountability.

    >> Send your letter now to demand Congress stop Ted Cruz’s plan to criminalize protest and defend the First Amendment before it’s too late.

  3. Scientists: Please read, share and sign: >>As scientists, researchers, and experts in our field, we are writing to emphasize the acute nature of the climate crisis, and
    to urge Citi to adopt a policy excluding financing for fossil fuel expansion, particularly for projects and activities that
    pollute Black, Brown, Indigenous, and other frontline communities. The financial industry must recognize the physical harms and economic risks it is exacerbating by enabling fossil fuel expansion, and rapidly adopt new policies that align with a safer climate future.
    The increasing urgency of the climate crisis is undeniable. 2023 was by far the hottest year on record, continuing a trend of the last 10 years being the hottest decade. People around the world were affected by deadly wildfires, floods, droughts, and storms. The United States experienced the highest-ever annual number of billion-dollar plus disasters, many of which bear the fingerprints of climate change. Already, climate catastrophes are wreaking havoc on lives, health, infrastructure, ecosystems, and economies throughout the world—with those who have the fewest resources and who have done the least to contribute to the problem being most severely harmed. The science is clear that climate impacts will be significantly worse if we do not make deep, rapid cuts to heat-trapping emissions, phase out fossil fuels, and pursue a just transition to a clean energy system. According to the 2024 Banking on Climate Chaos report, Citi is the second-largest financier of fossil fuels since the adoption of the Paris Climate Agreement, having poured $396 billion into the industry since 2016.

  4. @LibreSolutionsNetwork Glad to come across this #CashFriday #callForAction. There is a #WarOnCash and I’ve picked sides. Today was a cash-only day for me, as is just about every day.

  5. Decentralised Month of Solidarity with Assange, Whistleblowers and Press Freedom Worldwide

    defend.wikileaks.org/2020/08/3

    The US, the UK, aided by Ecuador, Sweden and others, are attempting to silence #Assange and WikiLeaks. Their aim is to set a precedent that will globally harm the ability to publish information that governments want to keep secret, along with our collective capacity to organise and act based on that information.
