Nov 10-12. Washington, DC. Three days of peaceful resistance. Be there.

A taxpayer uprising is coming to Washington, DC, and we need you to be part of it! Join the CODEPINK contingent for three days of nonviolent action as we take a stand and demand:

NO MORE of our Money to Wars and Militarism!

  • End the catastrophic war in Iran—and ALL wars. We want to live in peace.

  • End US complicity in Israeli crimes. No more money for Israel. No integration of the US and Israeli militaries.

  • Stop the $1.5 trillion war budget and instead invest in Medicare For All, affordable housing, green energy and a sustainable future.

We are sick and tired of a system that bombs schools instead of building them, that funds warfare instead of healthcare, that imprisons and deports our neighbors instead of strengthening our communities, that plunders the earth instead of nurturing this beautiful but wounded planet.

We say ENOUGH! Those who are supposed to be our leaders have led us to a dead end. We demand a radically different path. What will we be doing? Marching peacefully through the halls of Congress, visiting congressional offices and making our outrage impossible to ignore.

Daily Schedule:

👉🏼 Tuesday, Nov 10, Start time: 10AM ET, Meet in Dirksen Cafeteria @ Dirksen Senate Office Building, Basement (NW Corner / SDB-R7)
Day in Congress: Actions, Senate Offices & Outside Vigil

👉🏼 Wednesday, Nov 11 Start time: 10AM ET: Action on the Mall, Art installation, Procession, & more

👉🏼 Thursday, Nov 12, Start time: 10AM ET Meet in Rayburn Cafeteria, 45 Independence Ave SW, Washington, DC 20515: Day in Congress: Representatives Offices & Outside Vigil

We will be dropping in on our elected officials on Tuesday and Thursday! But to make our time as effective as possible, please schedule your own visits with your representatives for those two days!


CODEPINK is grounded in the understanding of the power of love and maintains a commitment to nonviolence in all of our actions. We understand that any violation of this commitment to nonviolence—no matter how small—may seriously damage CODEPINK's status as a nonprofit.

We define nonviolence to include the following elements:

  • We will use no violence, verbal or physical, toward any person.
  • We will maintain an attitude of openness and respect toward all people we encounter in our actions.
  • We will not destroy any property.
  • We will carry no weapons.
  • We will exercise personal and collective responsibility to ensure all participants adhere to these commitments.
