Friend,
I look forward to May Day each year. After a long winter, it’s a
joy to march in the streets with my neighbors — chanting for immigrant
rights, worker rights, LGBTQ rights, and more.
There are May Day events all over the country next
week.1 You're invited to join Jews and allies to
demonstrate unity, solidarity, and power on May 1st.
Find
your local May Day event and RSVP here.
As we’re getting in the streets, Congress is shaping the
next federal budget. Republicans want to use their majority
to ram through MAGA policy priorities in a budget process called
reconciliation.2,3
If they get their way we'll likely see increases in mass detention
and deportation, funded by cuts to critical services like healthcare
and food assistance.
Every member of Congress needs to hear from their
constituents — demanding they reject all additional funding for
Trump’s cruelty.
Take
action: send a message to your members of Congress to say “Fund
communities, not deportation!”
As Jews, we know that budgets are moral documents.
Where we put our money is a reflection of our values and the world we
seek to build. That’s why we are organizing to stop this Republican
reconciliation budget proposal.
Whether you join us in the streets for May Day or take digital
action to protect our communities, thank you for being part of
the Jewish resistance.
In solidarity,
