The Philippines has been deemed one of the deadliest countries in the world for land defenders, journalists and trade unionists. However, since 2016, the U.S. has provided over $1 Billion in military aid to the Philippines and implemented paltry human rights restrictions and oversight.
We are calling for the introduction of legislation “To suspend United States security assistance with the Philippines until such time as human rights violations by Philippine security forces cease and the responsible state forces are held accountable.”
We are asking for your support in becoming an official endorser of this campaign for the suspension of U.S. military aid. When you commit to at least one of the following, we'll add your logo to the forthcoming website as an endorsing organization:
- Joining lobbying efforts with local elected officials
- Providing resources and support for the campaign (i.e., mobilization of membership, staff, venue, supplies, in-kind);
- Donating $50, $100, $250, or $500 for support of campaign costs (based on capacity) - send donations here: malayamovement.square.site/endorse-the-phra
