Join CODEPINK for our Anti-Imperialist Campaign Series’s focus on our Cut the Pentagon campaign to learn more about the upcoming trillion-dollar Pentagon budget and what we can do to redirect funds for death and destruction to resources for healthcare, education, housing, and climate justice. 

These weeks of education and action kicks off with a webinar hosted by national COEPINK co-director, Danaka Katovich, to discuss:

• The history of the Pentagon budget fueling waste, war, and inequality
• How the “big beautiful bill” secured billions of dollars more for the military budget
• What is at stake when in invest in war over the people and the planet

During the weeks in focus, through social media series, articles, and a radio show, we will share facts and resources on the tradeoffs, how the Big Beautiful Bill will result in millions of hard-working Americans losing access to essential resources -  including Medicaid and SNAP, and how resources are hard earned dollars are being diverted from crucial human and environmental protection services are placed directly into the pockets of private companies and the top 5% wealthiest individuals. 

We will conclude with tangible ways you can take action to Cut the Pentagon. Studies have clearly shown that campaign contributions from war profiteers heavily influence our representatives when it comes time to vote for the Pentagon budget every year. We will give you ways to: 

• Email your representative asking them to #DivestFromWar!
• Meet with your Rep and ask them to sign the Divest Congress pledge
• An A-Z Guide to Divest Congress from War
• Talking points for Congressional meetings

The Pentagon’s blank check ends with us! Join our Cut the Pentagon weeks and let's end it together.

Throughout history, organized workers have been the motor behindevery progressive change in society. From the general strike ofenslaved workers that dealt the final blow to the system of slavery,to the sit-down strikes that led to the organization of millions ofworkers, history demonstrates the power of the working class: when weare organized, bold, and united, we drive forward the fight for abetter future. As the Trump administration is waging an intensifiedwar on workers and all those rights won through decades of struggle,building a fighting labor movement to overcome these assaults is moreurgent than ever. But it requires organizing and empowering millionsof workers to transform that potential into real power.

This course delves into the history and lessons of the labormovement, and examines why the power of the organized working classhas always been central to every progressive transformation in theUnited States.

Let's get together to workshop our writing in a supportive environment: poems, short stories, songs and novel chapters (up to 1,000 words). The workshop will focus on the peace economy: works that speak to a culture of empathy, solidarity and connectedness, and resist a culture of violence and war.  Please feel free to bring work to share via a Google Doc link. All skill levels are welcome -- We hope to see you there! 

This workshop will be led by Michelle Humphrey. Michelle is a literary agent based in Tucson, AZ.

Join CODEPINK for Weeks of Focus on the Local Peace Economy, where we’ll explore how to resist the war machine by building alternatives—right where we live. For decades, we’ve fought to end wars. But we won’t stop militarism until we dismantle the war economy that fuels it. While we protest and expose policymakers, we must also cultivate the future of peace that is necessary for life to thrive—one based on mutual aid, solidarity, and sustainable living.

We will start the weeks in focus with a webinar hosted by our CODEPINK Co-founder Jodie Evans and Local Peace Economy Campaign Coordinator Marie Goodwin, where you will:

• Learn how to pivot from the war economy to the practices of peace
• Find creative ways to root yourself in community where you live 
• Grow as an organizer by engaging locally
  

Through social media series, articles, and podcasts, we will share interesting facts about co-ops, mutual aid networks, and global resistance to exploitative capitalism.

By the end, you’ll have practical tools to take the first steps—from organizing a clothing swap, skill share, or local cooperative  or how to grow your local Peace Economy.

War thrives on exploitation, oppression and extraction—join us in cultivating a better world rooted in care, cooperation, and community.
