Trump’s Project 2025 isn’t just a policy; it’s a blueprint for more violence and repression—both in Palestine and here in the U.S. Trump’s allies are openly pushing for the destruction of Palestinian human rights and silencing those who fight back.

Thank you, Jon Stewart.

On Monday, for the first time in its history, the Democratic National Convention will hold a panel on Palestinian human rights. We thank the DNC for recognizing this pivotal issue and remain dedicated to pushing VP Harris to stop providing weapons for Israel's assault on Gaza.

We are waiting for a phone call from Vice President Harris and the DNC to allow a single Palestinian American speaker to address delegates from the convention stage. #LetPalestineSpeak #NotAnotherBomb

Huge #NotAnotherBomb march in NYC as part of Uncommitted's largest-ever grassroots mobilization, less than 24 hours before the Democratic National Convention kicks off.

Today, we made an important announcement in response to Vice President Harris not meeting our requests for engagement and policy change. Pro-war forces like AIPAC may want to drive us out of the Democratic Party, but we’re here to stay. #NotAnotherBomb

The Uncommitted movement just spoke in favor of a ceasefire and an arms embargo on Israel’s war and occupation against Palestinians at the Democratic National Convention’s platform drafting committee hearing. -Elianne Farhat

"We need the stages of the DNC to reflect the fullness of our party, inclusive of Palestinian Americans... We risk depressing the cautious optimism and the hope of the people we need to show up in November... And more than anything, we need an arms embargo now." - Cori Bush

"For two thirds of my life I believed that the occupation of Palestine was necessary for my safety." -June Rose, a Jewish DNC delegate for Uncommitted Rhode Island

“We supply these weapons. So if you really wanted a ceasefire, you just stop sending the weapons. It is really that simple.” - ⁦Ilhan Omar⁩ at our press conference yesterday. #NotAnotherBomb

A message from @AZAlawieh on Election Day.

Just before the DNC began, thousands of Democrats hit the streets with a clear demand of VP Harris: #NotAnotherBomb — a demand being echoed by the hundreds of Ceasefire Delegates this week. It's time for her to listen to the voters, unite the party, and change course on Gaza.

“The inexplicable reality I was experiencing, being disempowered from engaging our communities to block Trump, that kind of prioritization of the donor class over the working class was happening across our country. The problem the Democratic Party has is systemic.“ -@AZAlawieh

“Many of us voted for Biden in 2020, including myself…but now we are saying count us out, Joe. Count us out for funding war and genocide.” -Layla Elabed #ListenToMichigan
