Advocacy Teams working for peace in Yemen
Grassroots Advocacy Teams across the country made a powerful impact on ending U.S. support for the war in Yemen in 2022. Twelve of the 13 senators who cosponsored Senate legislation on Yemen signed on after meeting with an Advocacy Team - that is amazing!
There were 118 cosponsors on the House bill: Our Advocacy Teams met with 41 of those co-sponsors, and 38 of them co-sponsored after meeting with an Advocacy Team.
These numbers tell an incredible story: your advocacy makes a huge difference!
