IfNotNow Movement is proud to endorse BRAD LANDER for U.S. Congress NY-10 Paid for by End the Occupation PAC, PO Box 741070 Los Angeles, CA 90004

I am proud to receive the support of IfNotNow Movement, which has been a clear, bold advocate for peace in Israel and Palestine. I look forward to being a strong partner in Congress and in the fight for the shared safety, freedom, and thriving of Israelis and Palestinians, and of Jews and Muslims and everyone here in New York City and across the U.S. While outside money floods this race to protect the status quo, we will continue building a grassroots, people-powered movement to fight against hate and authoritarianism, and to build a new wave of humanism that refuses to compromise on anyone's humanity.

We’re proud to announce that IfNotNow Movement and @ifnotnownyc.bsky.social are endorsing @bradlander.bsky.social for Congress in NY-10!
