#StopLockheedMartin on April 21
Lockheed Martin is by far the largest weapons producer in the world. From Ukraine to Yemen, from Palestine to Colombia, from Somalia to Syria, from Afghanistan and West Papua to Ethiopia, no one profits more from war and bloodshed than Lockheed Martin. People are asked to arrange a demonstration outside one of the hundreds of Lockheed Martin facilities!
There are many ways to be involved in WILPF US!
In addition to being in a branch, WILPF US members can join as many issue committees as they'd like. All a member needs to do is contact a chair/co-chair and say they'd like to be on the issue committee. Plus, WILPF US has many ad-hoc and standing committees. A list of those that are open to accepting new members will be listed in an eAlert that will be coming out within days. Watch for it! For more information, contact Dianne Blais at 703-830-1998 (cell: 703-300-7937).
