Pelosi's Constituents Locked Out & Arrested for Requesting Meeting - LET GAZA LIVE!
Channel: CODEPINK
Date: 07/03/2024

Today, two of our members from San Francisco were arrested outside the office of Nancy Pelosi, their representative in Congress. They have been requesting meetings with her for months to express the urgent need for her to stop supporting lsrael’s genocide in Gaza.

Police forced us to remove our altar honoring those killed in Gaza outside our office and later arrested two of our members demanding a meeting with their Congresswoman.

As we approach International Women’s Day, we’ve been going around to the offices of supposedly “progressive” women in Congress and demanding they stand with the women of Gaza and stop arming Israel. Once hailed as an inspiration for women in Congress, Nancy Pelosi now represents nothing more than faux feminism and war profiteering.

By refusing to end military and financial aid to Israel, Pelosi and other faux "feminists" have created a devastating reproductive justice nightmare in Palestine: 
• 50,000 pregnant women in Gaza are living under Israel’s constant bombardment
• Miscarriages in Palestine have increased by 300%
• There is little to no access to adequate prenatal and postnatal care, treatment, and medicine for families.
• There is a shortage of blood to treat postpartum injuries, and surgeons have performed C-sections with no anesthetic.
• The Palestinian Family Planning and Protection Association (PFPPA) has worked to ensure the accessibility of sexual and reproductive health care services for Palestinians. Israel destroyed it with an airstrike.

No true “progressive” or “feminist” would support such atrocities. 

Reproductive justice for women everywhere! Let Gaza live!
