So begins the largest veteran and military family act of civil disobedience
since the Iraq war began, occupying the Cannon building Rotunda - protesting yet
another forever war with Iran which includes the genocide in Palestine, the
ethnic cleansing in southern Lebanon, and the potential ground operation in
Cuba. Whatever violence we do overseas always comes back home and every war
fought by this government is a war on the working class, which is you... we're
here until arrest or speaker Mike Johnson come out to answer for the dead and
meet our demands.

If you're an active duty service member and do not wish to join the 5th US
generation fighting in a senseless self-destructive war, immoral war for the
rich, we will stand with you, there is a way out. Info below:
