Marin County for an End to U.S Funding of Israel's Genocide and establishing a Permanent Ceasefire

Marin County Elected Officials

As of April 2025 there are over 200,000 Palestinians, including over 140,000 women and children, who have been killed directly and indirectly by Israeli military action since October 7th, 2023. Every county, city, and town elected official must call for an end to U.S. funding of Israel's genocide and demand that Israel abide to the ceasefire agreement, sending a clear message to Congress and the President that this is the demand of the people! People living in Marin County are world citizens first who stand in solidarity with all those oppressed by the Imperialism of Israel and the United States. We will not rest until the genocide is stopped!
