Waterville Rally. Come out to stand with concerned citizens Saturday, May 25 at 1:30 pm to say NO to bad funding priorities — no more $$ for Israel! No more $$ for Ukraine! We’ll stand at the busy intersection of College Ave & Main St in Waterville, Maine.

As the genocide in Gaza continues, and violence spreads throughout the region, the Biden administration is sending more bombs and planes to Israel for terrorizing Palestinians. Well over 100,000 have been killed or wounded. Mass starvation now grips Gaza. Israel is also moving into the West Bank to create a similar situation there.
Still the U.S. continues funding and arming genocide while many in the U.S. live paycheck to paycheck, struggling just to get by. Our national infrastructure is falling apart.

Our demands:
* Permanent ceasefire now in Gaza. Allow humanitarian aid to flow.
* End U.S. aid to racist apartheid Israel!
* Peace in Ukraine - No weapons, no money for the Ukraine War
* Abolish NATO – End U.S. militarism & sanctions!
* Fund people’s needs, not the war machine!
* No war with China!
* Protect Earth’s environment from the deadly insult of war!
* Fight racism & bigotry not war!
* U.S. hands off Haiti
