Join the Equitable & Just Insurance Initiative (EJII) in a discussion about a new guide offering a slate of actions local and state governments and advocates can take to protect communities before and after extreme weather strikes. Now, the Trump administration is gutting FEMA aid for disaster preparedness and recovery, NOAA climate science programs, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and scores of climate investment and conservation programs, including resiliency grants to local governments and community groups.

38] – MAPA [info@masspeaceaction.org] on Tues., May 20 at 1 PM is hosting a webinar with Richard Sakwa on The Russo-Ukrainian War, Diplomacy, and the Peace Movement. Professor Richard Sakwa of Kent University in Britain was an Associate Fellow of the Russia and Eurasia Program at Chatham House (2002-20), a Senior Research Fellow at the National Research University-Higher School of Economics in Moscow (2014-2024), and a member of Academy of Learned Societies for the Social Sciences (2002-2022). His books include Frontline Ukraine: Crisis in the Borderlands.
So much for President Trump's boast that he would end the Ukraine War in a day! Despite what passes for diplomacy in Riyadh, Moscow, and Kyiv to end the war and create a new European security order in Europe, the war, its killing, and destruction go on. RSVP at https://secure.everyaction.com/JazYN6dMsEuoUcHvFXDAxQ2?contactdata=8sm+JPcjjnL1gNF9X7zzDTDKZgZVk0HqDOiIukxCCBJDNuJtrqsuT+IHJNHQoShiq0K2ys3YMvREwkDu4RKpDjn%2fS4vhBZwKLM5QruvwXKJNAfhB0B%2fJTdfIj%2fmyOVSDl6SWtQ0NLqf2rLsggytcTLW0NBHRkqmRtUtnOrq9h9x1OWW+SpU6s9Sw5WNzwRunCpc5e4tAnSn0fIxbNDeMNttDdl4OhEXIs9qjXdHI2Lo%3d&ms=email-web-ukraine-250519&emci=6dad2f7a-c434-f011-a5f1-6045bda9d96b&emdi=ae68543b-c834-f011-a5f1-6045bda9d96b&ceid=320042
39] – Jewish Voice for Peace is doing a Power Half-Hour for Gaza: Channel grief & outrage into action to stop a genocide. A year into the genocide in Gaza, we are overwhelmed with sorrow and rage. There are no words to describe the devastating pain of the past year in which the Israeli military has killed over 44,000 Palestinians in Gaza, including more than 17,000 children. The International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court have both declared that Israel must stop the genocidal acts being committed on the Palestinian people. And the U.S. government is actively supporting the Israeli military as it wreaks devastation on the over 2 million Palestinians in Gaza. JVP continues to come together as a political community in its daily half-hour to take action. Join in and take collective action to demand an arms embargo to Israel, immediate end to the genocide, a lasting ceasefire and an end to Israeli siege, apartheid, occupation, and oppression of Palestinians and Lebanon. All are welcome. All are needed. Get involved at 3 PM ET on Tues., May 20, Wed., May 21, Thurs., May 22 & Mon., Mon. 26.
