Mashup Score: 6Indianapolis Global Day of Action for #insulin4all - 2 month(s) ago
Globally, one in two people cannot get insulin and testing supplies because it is unaffordable, inaccessible, or both. We are working for a world where insulin and testing supplies costs no more than 5% of a person’s income in any given country. On March 16th, we will be holding an event as part of the Global Day of Action for #insulin4all. We will be rallying at Monument Circle and delivering over 3,000 petition signatures to Eli Lilly to call for #insulin4all By RSVPing, you are agreeing to our action principles: We are patient-led. We elevate the voices of those most impacted by the insulin price crisis. We are inclusive. We are a nonviolent movement. We work in collaboration and in partnership with other organisations. We are bold, independent, and transparent. We strategically pressure Big Pharma. By speaking powerfully and act publicly to win the conscience of the public and move them to take action, we know that our institutions will have no choice but to follow. We are hopeful.

Mashup Score: 10Replace UNRWA! - 2 month(s) ago
Enough is enough. UNRWA must be dissolved and replaced. In the last few weeks, it has been revealed that: – 12 UNRWA staff took part in the October 7th massacre – 1,200 UNRWA staff in Gaza are members of terrorist groups – 3,000 UNRWA teachers were in a Telegram group that celebrated October 7th – Hamas built a terror tunnel directly below UNRWA Headquarters in Gaza, hiding a computer intelligence center that was powered by the agency’s electrical grid The UN and its secretary-general Antonio Guterres cannot pretend they are “horrified” by this news. Because for the last decade, UN Watch sent them countless warnings about UNRWA staff support for terrorism. The UN did nothing, except to attack the messenger. That terrorism would find a haven in UNRWA is no surprise. The entire purpose of the agency is to perpetuate grievance, hatred, and war, by refusing to resettle Arab refugees from 1948 and their descendants. Today, UNRWA absurdly deems 70% of Gaza’s population — who live in what the

Mashup Score: 1Save Child Care! Call your Member of Congress Now! - 6 month(s) ago
Stabilization funds that saved an already broken child care industry from collapse during the pandemic have expired, putting 3.2 million children at risk of losing access to child care. Meaning we are now past the deadline and Congress needs to act NOW. This is why Congress must prioritize providing at least $16 billion per year in emergency child care dollars while ensuring no cuts to child care and early learning programs. This is the only way to address this crisis without creating a new one! Call your member of Congress today to tell them: “Emergency funding that saved the child care industry during the pandemic has expired and millions of children are at risk of losing access to care. Tell Congress that they must pass emergency child care funding now!”

Mashup Score: 210Tell Your Rep: We Demand A Ceasefire NOW - 6 month(s) ago
The Israeli government has shut off water, food supplies, fuel, electricity, and internet to all 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza, nearly half of whom are children. Thousands of Israeli and Palestinian civilians have been killed since October 7th, and the bombing continues. This is a time for humanity and moral clarity to prevail. We cannot bomb our way to peace, we must do everything to prevent mass atrocity.

Mashup Score: 1Reliable Pensions, Not Risky Politics - 8 month(s) ago
WORKERS DEMAND BETTER RETIREMENT SECURITY FOR ALL The premier says she intends to “protect the pension interests and benefits of all Albertans.” The fact is, the best way to protect the pension interests and benefits of all Albertans is to remain in the most stable, portable and reliable pension fund there is – the CPP – and focus on expanding access to pensions for all workers. We know access to pensions are a very important part of workers being able to retire in dignity. The Alberta government could make retiring in dignity a reality for every Albertan. If Premier Smith truly cares about Alberta workers and their retirement security, she will focus on expanding access to pensions for all Alberta workers, not meddling with our CPP. The right solution to improving affordability for workers in the context of cost-of-living increases and securing retirement income is to focus on fixing the labour laws that restrict workers, not removing their current pension savings. Albertans need reli

Mashup Score: 1We need a Georgia Reproductive Freedom Act - 1 year(s) ago
When someone decides to have an abortion, they should have access to timely, safe, legal, and affordable abortion care without shame, punishment, or violence. But Georgia has passed a host of medically unjustified, politically motivated laws that restrict abortion access. These bans fall hardest on those of us who already deal with discriminatory barriers to healthcare—Black, Indigenous, and…
