Action alerts, weekly protest for peace , featured mobilizations, and partner events across Wisconsin.

To Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and All Native Nations

Peace Action WI respects that in Milwaukee we are on traditional Potawatomi, Ho-Chunk and Menominee homeland and Wisconsin is the home of the sovereign Menominee, Sauk and Fox, Anishinaabe, Ho-Chunk, Oneida and Mohican Nations. We affirm our solidarity and support for the rights of Wisconsin Indigenous Nations.

Action Alerts

Veterans For Peace Action Alert
 

EMERGENCY ACTION — TUESDAY, JULY 28

Stop U.S./Israeli War on Iran! 

Veterans For Peace is very concerned about the Trump administration's reckless and dangerous escalation of the U.S. (and Israel's) war on Iran. So we are happy to co-sponsor this urgent call for nationally-coordinated actions this coming Tuesday, July 28, and encourage our chapters and members to participate in some way. 

We realize time is short for getting a lot of people into the streets on the 28th. So we encourage you to be creative and do whatever you can—visibility actions on busy corners, banner drops, photos with signs posted on Instagram—anything that helps to amplify the message that a large majority of people are against this illegal and unprovoked war of aggression.

This is an extremely expensive war—$37 billion so far—and we are seeing unprecedented, flagrant war profiteering while Americans are told there is no money for education, healthcare, or housing, and the war drives up the cost of gasoline and groceries. 

There are now over 500 U.S. military casualties—which the Trump administration has tried to hide—at least 17 killed, along with thousands of Iranian civilians, including hundreds of children. How many more must die?

Demonstrate your outrage this Tuesday, July 28.

Stop the U.S./Israeli war on Iran!

Please send action reports and photos to [email protected].
Call Congress 

For 24 hours, the streets of Riverwest become one giant celebration on two wheels. Riverwest24 returns with costumed riders, neighborhood checkpoints, late-night fun, and the uniquely Milwaukee spirit that has made the race a local legend.


 

THIS SUNDAY!!! Join MAC for our very first Peace Parade to protest the Air & Water Show in a new and exciting way.
