32] –Faith
in Public Life [commongood@faithinpubliclife.org] on Tues., June 10 at 10:15 AM
is asking others to be at the Capitol for a Pentecost witness for a moral
budget. In this season of Pentecost, remember a sacred truth shared across many
faith traditions: the power of spirit and community can move us from fear to
courage, from silence to public witness. Together, call on Congress to reject
budget cuts that would harm the most vulnerable among us and violate our
deepest moral values. RSVP at https://sites.google.com/georgetown.edu/pentecostjustice?usp=sharing&emci=c1b86909-3042-f011-a5f1-6045bda9d96b&emdi=0707c80a-5042-f011-a5f1-6045bda9d96b&ceid=741284
33] – 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., June 10, Wed., June 11, Thurs., June 12 and Mon., June 16.

34] –Baltimore County teachers are rallying for fair pay on Tues., June 10 from 5:30 to 7:30 PM in Towson. Our teachers show up for our families day in and day out. The Teachers' Association of Baltimore County (TABCO) recently collaborated with CASA to pass a resolution through Baltimore County Public Schools (BCPS) to affirm the rights of immigrant students, and some of their members helped organize the historic Baltimore May Day rally.

"Baltimore Families for Justice" - the new parents' group that organized the May Day "Family Feeder March" - will be there with snacks, noise makers, etc. The rally will be in the parking lot of the BCPS headquarters, next to a safe grassy area: Greenwood Building E, 6901 N.
