Yes it does! Proud to partner and stand with OSF.

"Shameful and dangerous." As the ACLU puts it, "This memorandum is part of the President’s larger pattern of abusing his power to target critics." "But the president cannot rewrite the Constitution by memo."

As the deadline to prevent a gov. shutdown approaches, Congress can and must pass legislation that: 1. Keeps the gov. open. 2. Prioritizes the needs of working families & protects the most vulnerable. 3. Ensures key funding is protected from Trump's authoritarian efforts to override Congress.

@aclu-dc.bsky.social thank you! www.acludc.org/press-releas...

War is not the answer and the president doesn’t have the right to kill anyone he wants. Congress must step up and reclaim its constitutional authorities to end this endless warmaking.

Investing in people = investing in security. 👇 “When people’s lives improve, when they have access to education, healthcare, economic opportunities and when they can live lives of dignity and self determination, we will have more peaceful societies and a more peaceful world.”

It’s not just “their war” Secretary Rubio. It is US weapons at work in a genicide. Shame on all of us. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...

Thank you to @repmcgovern.bsky.social and all of the faith leaders who joined us! 👏 Add your voice ⬇️ and urge your members of Congress to protect life-saving aid.

We are horrified and deeply saddened by the killing of political commentator Charlie Kirk and are holding his loved ones in the Light. In the wake of this traumatic act of political violence, let us commit to seeing the humanity in one another, and to loving all of our neighbors without exception.

War Is Not the Answer, At Home or Abroad. This is a disgrace and very dangerous for country's safety and democracy. Congress must act now to restrain Trump from deploying more troops against our communities. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

This is what authoritarianism looks like.

What we’re seeing is not Trump "cleaning up crisis or disorder." He's creating it "so that he can build what he has wanted to build: an authoritarian state, a military or a paramilitary that answers only to him.” buff.ly/Zti5mFV

"Enough is enough. #NoTroopsOnOurStreets!"

📣 "The answer to Trump’s takeover isn’t just a rejection of his effort, it is to make Washington, DC the 51st state.” We joined 77 organizations urging Congress to reject Trump’s authoritarian takeover of DC and to cosponsor and pass the #DCstatehood bill.

This Friend speaks my mind.

Back to school should be a time of joy and hope, not fear and force. Read my latest from occupied DC here: religionnews.com/2025/08/27/f...

Free DC. Free America. Take action here.

As students go back to school, we all have the responsibility to make sure they can learn in a safe, welcoming environment. Right now, many of our immigrant friends and neighbors are unsafe. Here is a helpful resource on student rights:

This is what authoritarianism looks like.

“Any domestic military operation that involves the armed forces in law enforcement should raise alarm bells.”

ICYMI: We joined 30+ partner organizations calling on Congress to take urgent action to stop President Trump’s directive to use U.S. military force in Latin America. #WarIsNotTheAnswer winwithoutwar.org/37-groups-to...

OPINION: While the recognition of the Palestinian state in this current moment is largely a symbolic action, it's an important step in the process of bringing about a solution that recognizes the dignity and sovereignty of two peoples sharing the same land. religionnews.com/2025/08/06/a...

The Trump admin. has been "rounding up and forcibly transferring people" to foreign countries known to commit human rights abuses, including torture. Thankfully, @kaine.senate.gov has introduced important new legislation to try to stop this outrageous, immoral policy. buff.ly/Xhumeu2

This friend speaks my mind.

Take a moment to read the story below for glimpse into life and death for children in Gaza. Then take action to stop the genocide here: act.fcnl.org/sign/letters.... anabaptistworld.org/the-short-li...

#WarIsNotTheAnswer abroad. And it's not the answer at home. We must reject: ❌The militarization of policing & immigration enforcement in our communities. ❌The militarization of our borders. ❌The further militarization of our foreign policy.

By a vote of 27-17, Senate Democrats voted to stop sending arms shipments to a Netanyahu government which has waged a horrific, immoral and illegal war against the Palestinian people. The tide is turning. Americans don't want to spend billions to starve children in Gaza.

We are concerned by the arrest of Quaker activist Jacob Hoopes by federal authorities in Oregon. We are holding Jacob, his family, and the Quaker community he belongs to in the Light.    More ⬇️

Breaking: A large coalition of faith groups are suing the Trump administration over ICE raids targeting houses of worship. 🙏👏 @democracyforward.org #LoveThyNeighbor democracyforward.org/updates/hous...

As Quakers, we compelled "to speak truth with integrity, including where it is uncomfortable, yet always to do so in love." "We name what we see as genocide after deep discernment – not to incite, but to open eyes, minds, and hearts."

Thank you @vanhollen.senate.gov for speaking out with moral clarity. This truth is painful. But we must confront this reality and demand an immediate end to our nation’s enabling of the atrocities in Gaza.

A reminder. Governments have a responsibility to protect people seeking safety.

There’s still time to make your voice heard! Take a few minutes to tell your senators: No more weapons enabling the starvation and bombardment of Palestinians in Gaza! ☎️ resource: fcnl.quorum.us/campaign/117...

This friend speaks my mind.

We joined with seven other Quaker organizations to proclaim with moral clarity that the Israeli government's actions in Gaza constitute genocide. This calls for action: www.fcnl.org/updates/2025...

A must read by my amazing colleague Amelia Kegan: www.fcnl.org/updates/2025...

We will continue to work to pressure Congress and the Trump administration until peace is secured. Read more from @bridgetmoixfcnl.bsky.social on how we got here, and the path ahead toward peace: buff.ly/Ayq2dgi

It’s time to restore congressional oversight and prevent another disastrous conflict in the Middle East. buff.ly/Xf6BQvV

"The Trump Administration’s bombing of Iran’s nuclear facilities is illegal, unconstitutional, and a violation of international law... A return to diplomacy is urgently needed to prevent more tragedy." @bridgetmoixfcnl.bsky.social buff.ly/Ayq2dgi

War is not the answer. The administration has launched attacks on Iran without congressional authorization and is leading the US down a disastrous path. Holding the people of Iran, Israel, and the region in the Light.

Honor World Refugees Day by standing with our refugee neighbors and taking action today. www.fcnl.org/updates/2025...

Military troops are not the answer. Trump is invoking war powers against our communities. This is the latest escalation in his authoritarian rule and very dangerous. Civilian rule of law must be restored and mass deportation must end. This is not America.

We are dismayed and heartbroken by the killing of two Israeli embassy staff in Washington, D.C. last night. As Quakers, we abhor violence and believe there is that of God in everyone. We condemn this attack and are holding the victims, their families, and everyone impacted in the light.

March on, Friends!

@chrismurphyct.bsky.social Thank you! youtu.be/EwZWCk1ytPU?...

Congress must use every tool available to demand immediate, unfettered aid for the sake of millions of civilians in Gaza. @hassaneltayyab.bsky.social

Dear Congress, our democracy is NOT for sale. This is blatant corruption and abuse of the office. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Amazing advocacy by our amazing @fcnl.bsky.social network!

Thank you to @booker.senate.gov and the nearly 30 other Senators who are pushing back against the Trump admin's cancelation of crucial public safety and community gun violence prevention programs. #SaveCVI www.booker.senate.gov/news/press/b...

Thank you for your continued leadership, @sanders.senate.gov. We need more lawmakers to raise pressure and sound the alarm. Tell your members of Congress ➡️ Gaza needs relief now! fcnl.quorum.us/campaign/121...
