Join us for a conversation with Peace Action National's President Kevin Martin to talk about the US supported Yemen War, nuclear disarmament issues, the Pentagon budget and more. New Hampshire's status as first in the nation primary state and the reality that Senator Shaheen is a senior member of Senate Appropriations and Foreign Relations make us an important part of national strategies for change. Join us to talk through how we can do our part as a critical piece of a national network of Peace Action chapters pulling together to affect policies and forge a more peaceful future.
