“[w]e need to elect public officials that prioritize the type of world that Peace Action stands for and who will strive for a peaceful future for their country and abroad.” Jirair Ratevosian
Please register to join us on Zoom and pose questions to Jirair.
Jirair is an experienced federal policy leader, public health doctor, and voice for change. He has worked for years to bring human rights and justice to the forefront of US foreign policy. Unsurprisingly, Jirair was the first major candidate in the CA-30 race to call for a ceasefire to end the tragic killing in Gaza. He also “call[s] on the Biden Administration to stop supporting an indiscriminate military campaign and seriously consider putting conditions on any future military aid related to this war” — a stance that is facing much ire from hawkish pro-Israeli groups like AIPAC. A host of pro-peace champions are being attacked for similar views on this war.
If elected, Jirair Ratevosian will join that intrepid group of lawmakers unafraid to act as movers and shakers challenging the status quo of militarism, imperialism, inequality, and injustice. We're thrilled to endorse his campaign, and hope that you'll join us tonight to learn about how to send another pro-peace candidate to Congress!
We hope to see you there! Lilly, Jon, Jeff, and the rest of the Peace Action elections team
P.S. If you're unable to join us, but would still like to help send Jirair to Congress, please donate to his campaign here.
