THE FREDERICK DOUGLASS TRAFFICKING VICTIMS PREVENTION AND PROTECTION REAUTHORIZATION ACT (H. R. 1144 - domestic AND international focus). Letter to House urging support for and passage of the bill. This critical and comprehensive legislation is vital for the continued prevention of trafficking, protection of survivors, and prosecution of perpetrators. This bill has a proven track record of broad, bipartisan support, having passed the House with overwhelming consensus in the last two Congresses (as H.R. 5856 and H.R. 6552). Despite this, it has yet to be reauthorized. BI-PARTISAN VENEUZUELA WAR POWERS RESOLUTION, S.J.RES. 90: Letter urging Congress to support the Kaine-Paul war powers resolution and prevent a march to war with Venezuela, as the Administration continues to escalate against the country, both via boat strikes and the implicit and explicit threat of regime change. The Venezuela War Powers Resolution would require President Trump to withdraw U.S. forces from imminent hostilities with Venezuela which have not been congressionally authorized. This WPR may come to the Senate floor for a vote imminently and would require only a change of a few votes from the October 8th War Powers vote in order to succeed. The letter outlines both how Trump and Secretary Rubio's regime change campaign against Venezuela is unconstitutional and illegal, and how broadly opposed it is by the American public (53% of Americans are against using U.S. military to overthrow Maduro while only 18% support the idea). The letter also describes the potentially catastrophic consequences of a regime change war in Venezuela, including mass civilian death, renewed migration crises, and a power vacuum that could empower the very drug cartels the administration claims to target. It notes the potentially politically ruinous effect those consequences could have on politicians seen as supporting the war, such as was the case with regime change efforts in Libya and Iraq. U.S. MILITARY ACTION IN THE CARIBBEAN: Letter to Congress responding to the U.S. strikes in the Caribbean that have killed at least 17 people, largely believed to be fishermen or migrants. The letter's goals are to help inform congressional offices and encourage support for the various congressional initiatives on War Powers Resolutions (WPRs). The present administrations economic threats and coercive measures have created such fear in the region that few governments or leaders have been willing to condemn these extrajudicial executions or the escalating risk of war under the false pretext of combating narco-terrorism. This makes a letter of broad support all the more urgent-not only to send a clear message to Congress and, through it, to the Administration, but also to show the people of Latin America and the Caribbean that they are not alone, and that civil society and policy organizations are pressing every legal avenue to prevent what could otherwise become a devastating course of events with lasting consequences for the region. REQUEST FOR FORMAL INVESTIGATION OF EXECUIVE OVERREACH RE: MILITARIZED RESPONSES IN VENEZUELA: Letter urging U.S. Congress to formally investigate the unlawful use of the U.S. military in Venezuela, which includes extrajudicial killings of people on board three boats in the high seas alleged to be transporting drugs as well as the deployment of federal troops to U.S. cities. PEACE IN GAZA, AND THE MIDDLE EAST: Interfaith letter to World Leaders, including the U.S. President, responding to the atrocities in Gaza as a powerful and unified faith voice amid devastating times. The text of this letter was finalized before the ceasefire deal announced on October 8, 2025. The ceasefire is a welcome step. As the letter indicates, we celebrate the return of hostages and detainees, but insist there is still a need for a comprehensive and permanent ceasefire and for the conditions that will lead to a just and lasting peace. World leaders must now redouble their efforts to ensure the terms of the deal are not violated and a permanent peace is realized. The futures of Palestinians, Israelis and all people of the Middle East are intertwined. For durable peace, the needs of all communities, especially the most marginalized, are heard, honored, and fully addressed. ENSURE A SUSTAINED CEASEFIRE AND ROBUST HUMANITARIAN AID IN GAZA & WEST BANK: NAC sent a blast to all the Foreign Policy LAs in Congress alerting them to a large coalition of 40 Christian organizations having launched an economic resistance campaign focused on tech company Palantir (https://investigate.afsc.org/company/palantir) and Chevron (https://afsc.org/BoycottChevron) for their complicity in the war, supporting Israels policies of ethnic cleansing through artificial intelligence and surveillance contracts with the Israeli military, as well as through public statements of support. The message asked each Congressmember to take effective actions to ensure a sustained ceasefire and robust humanitarian aid as a first step, such as contacting President Trump to stay on top of this issue or by supporting related resolutions/bills to exert leverage, such as HR 3565 Stop the Bombs or opposing annexation of the West Bank. TURNING DEBT INTO HOPE GRASSROOTS LOBBYING: Grassroots Lobbying targeting the President. The late Pope Francis said, We cannot be content to hope; we have to organize hope. We can organize our hope and Turn Debt Into Hope for billions of people! NAC invited Sisters, Partners-in-Mission, and Action Alert Friends, to join the Jubilee effort by signing a petition aimed at the G7 and G20 about forgiving debt to developing nations. INCLUDE UNWRA IN GAZA RECOVERY PLAN: Letter offering organizational support to a letter to Secretary Rubio in response to his comment that UNRWA will have no role in Gazas future. --UNRWA is still on the ground in Gaza and remains the backbone of the humanitarian response. UNRWAs neutrality and impartiality has been independently investigated and affirmed by four independent bodies and it is (past) time for the Agency to be fully enabled to continue fulfilling its mandate in accordance with international humanitarian principles, until a just and lasting solution to the plight of Palestine refugees is secured.

FREDERICK DOGLASS TVPRA (H.R. 5856): Urged network to continue to call for passage of FD TVPRA this session (H.R. 5856). Met with the offices of members of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee urging passage of this seminal legislation. Urged House Foreign Affairs Committee and Senate Foreign Relations Committee to work together to pass some kind of anti-human trafficking legislation...noting that the provisions in H.R. 5856 were amenable to both chambers. Did targeted request to NY constituents to urge Schumer as leader of the Senate to have the Senate take up and pass H.R. 5856 CIVIL WAR IN SUDAN: Encouraged members of Congress can help end the civil war in Sudan by co-sponsoring H.R. 8501. Sudan is facing a severe humanitarian crisis due to ongoing conflicts between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). The fighting, which began in April 2023, has resulted in widespread displacement, food insecurity, and human rights violations. UNRWA FUNDING EMERGENCY RESTORATION ACT OF 2024 (S. 5388)- ORGANIZATIONAL ENDORSEMENT LETTER TO SENATE: Part of an endorsement letter for the legislation. This legislation would end the congressionally and administratively mandated pause on funding for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNWRA). The Senate companion has minor edits/updates from the House version that include acknowledgment of UNRWAs implementation of reforms, the dangerous Knesset bills that would dismantle UNRWA operations, and recent actions of the Administration. Recently, the Knesset passed legislation to terminate UNRWA operations in East Jerusalem and risks preventing deconfliction in Gaza that is necessary to facilitate UNRWAs ability to safely provide humanitarian assistance. Urgent action by Congress is now more important than ever. Congress has the opportunity to send an important message that Americans support humanitarian assistance to starving women, children, and families desperate for food, medicine, and shelter. NUCLEAR WEAPONS: Group letter inviting Congressional members to participate in a Special Order in the House of Representatives on Wednesday, November 13. After votes have concluded on November 13, Congressman Jim McGovern hosted a Special Order focusing on the pressing issues surrounding nuclear weapons. Our faith traditions call us to prioritize international cooperation, seek peace, and reject nuclear saber rattling that makes the world less safe. Currently, arms control talks remain at a standstill and nuclear spending continues to skyrocket. At this pivotal time, this Special Order is a unique opportunity for your office to reinvigorate the conversation around the need to preserve existing nuclear guardrails, develop ethical safeguards, roll back increased nuclear spending, and work for justice for those impacted by the nuclear weapons industry.

Urged select House and Senate offices to support the creation of an immigration court for children. Urged President Biden to finalize the proposed rule that would give DACA recipients, as well as certain immigrants children, access to health coverage. Urged the Biden Administration to rescind its waiver of 26 environmental and public health laws to rush border wall construction, and to pause all planning related to the project. Urged Biden Administration to facilitate the reunification of immigrant families who have been trapped in extensive family visa backlogs for years by: 1) allowing the reclaiming of unused green cards; 2) providing parole for people in family-based green card backlogs; and 3) expanding family reunification parole programs. Letter to President, Vice President, Homeland Security, Dept of Justice, Dept of State, White House Chief of Staff, NSA opposing immigration policy harms - particularly those impacting asylum seekers - that seem to be in jeopardy, using asylum seekers as pawns in exchange for the passage of basic funding legislation. Urged the Biden administration and Congress to reject a legislative deal reportedly under consideration by the administration that would pair funding for Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan with extreme and permanent restrictions on the U.S. asylum system. Urged Schumer and McConnell to bring to a vote S396, the Haiti Criminal Collusion Transparency Act. The legislation is designed to hold gang leaders and their supporters accountable through a variety of means, This is one thing the U.S. can do to address the violence in Haiti, a root cause of forced migration. Advocacy work with the Alliance to End Human Trafficking focused on reducing the vulnerability of immigrants and migrants to human trafficking. Advocacy focus areas include: ● Inclusion of provisions in both the International Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act of 2023 (S. 920) and the Frederick Douglass Trafficking Victims Prevention and Protection Reauthorization Act of 2023 (H.R. 5856) that address the root causes of forced migration. While all people enjoy the right to migrate in search of safety and security, they also have the right to remain in their home countries living with dignity. We will advocate for the inclusion of provisions that provide: o U.S. aid for sustainable development and humanitarian assistance that provides support for food security, housing, employment, education and healthcare in local communities; o Support for both internally displaced persons and refugees that enables them to avoid undertaking the treacherous journey to the United States; and o Financial support to non-governmental organizations that seeks to enable people to remain in their home countries in safety and to broaden the network of care for those in dangerous circumstances. ● Rapid work authorizations for asylum seekers (H.R. 1325). The Asylum Seeker Work Authorization Act would direct the Secretary of Homeland Security to provide employment authorization for asylum applicants (provided they are not in detention and the application is not determined frivolous) 30 days after their filing of the asylum application. The inability to work leaves people vulnerable to exploitation. H.R. 1325 would enable asylum applicants to get to work and sustain themselves and their families; and ● Passage of the Immigration Court Efficiency and Childrens Court Act of 2023 (H.R. 6145 / S. 3178). This bill would assist and protect unaccompanied children, including those in need of protection from trafficking, as they navigate the complex U.S. immigration system.
