End of year appeal for your support; Jan 2023 newsletter

After taking a look at our January 2023 newsletter, and the NY Times article on forced JROTC, I’m hoping that you’ll find our efforts timely and valuable.

Image“I fully support the right of US military personnel who, in acts of conscience, refuse to go to a war of aggression, a war crime. … I proudly support those who take such a stand.”

-Ann Wright, Col., US Army (ret.), former US State Department Diplomat

Supporting the Troops Who Refuse to Fight

We’re a group of concerned community members, veterans and military families who support military objectors to illegal war and occupation and the policies of empire. Our People Power strategy weakens the pillars that maintain war and occupation in Iraq, Afghanistan and elsewhere by supporting GI resistance, counter-recruitment and draft resistance, which cuts off the supply of troops. We are autonomous from and independent of any political organization or party.
