It has already been terminated for refugees from Venezuela and Somalia, and is in danger of ending for Myanmar refugees on Jan. 28 and other countries after that. Unless the motion for a stay is granted on Feb. 2nd, Haitians will lose their work permits and be subject to ICE detention and deportation. TPS is supposed to protect people from returning to unsafe conditions in their home countries. Since the 2004 US-orchestrated coup against the democratic government of President Jean-Bertrand Aristide, Haiti has been completely destabilized under US\/UN occupation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In today\u2019s Haiti, paramilitary death squads armed with weapons from the United States control large parts of the country, burning, raping and terrorizing the population. Over half the population – 5.7 million Haitians – are facing acute food insecurity; 1.4 million are internally displaced due to violence. This is the situation Donald Trump and Kristi Noem want to force hundreds of thousands of Haitians to return to. Ending TPS for Haitian refugees is just as much a violent attack on human rights as the ICE raids across the US.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Sponsored by Haiti Action Committee, Myanmar Student Union, NorCal TPS Coalition, Community Liberation Programs<\/p>\n\n\n\n Info: Emergency!

Iran\u2019s theocratic regime has executed over 2,000 prisoners in 2025, the most in 20 years, and is now conducting brutal round-ups and street executions amid a new, sustained mass uprising since December 28, 2025. As of January 14th, over 2400 people have been reported to have been killed, thousands injured, and at least ten thousand in custody under horrific conditions. The situation is unfolding as we write.

This is the moment to show up. A packed courtroom sends a clear message: the Bay Area stands with the Stanford 11, no matter how hard the state tries to isolate, intimidate, and criminalize student resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We invite all supporters to come out strong for Thursday, and to join us on Friday while jury deliberations are ongoing. On Friday, we will gather in front of the courthouse at 9am with food, banners, and more, to be in community with the Stanford 11 as they await the verdict. If jury deliberations continue into the next week, we will show up again on Monday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now is the decisive moment. After 2+ years of our government committing a genocide, the imperial boomerang is upon us. What happened in Minnesota can and will happen here in the Bay Area if we do not act.
While we as a small business can’t shut down, as our immigrant team’s livelihood depends on your patronage, we will continue to hold space for refuge, gathering, strategizing, organizing, and disrupting status quo.
To all those thinking of walking out and taking to the streets, let us be your deciding factor. We’ll be serving free coffee from 1130-1 pm for anyone heading to Delores Park. Come be in community and let us nourish you.
What happened in Minnesota can happen here in the Bay Area.
Now is the decisive moment. The Minnesota General Strike has opened a historic opening. If we take a stand now, we can stop the killings, stop the kidnappings, and end the war on our communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AMERICAN HEALTH CARE IS SICK
ELIMINATE THE PROFITS END THE PRICE HIKES!
PUT NATIONAL SINGLE PAYER ON THE TABLE
End the national disgrace that gives hundreds of billions in tax payer subsidies to ACA insurers who made $71.3 Billion in profits in 2024. Meanwhile, 40% of working age Americans are without any coverage or have junk health insurance.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nMillions are set to lose ACA coverage and tens of millions will be saddled with rising employer health insurance premiums. Millions will lose Medicaid due to the \u201cBig Ugly Bill.\u201d This will kill tens of thousands of Americans and add more medical bankruptcies created by our private run healthcare system.
None of the \u201cfixes\u201d by the bought-and-paid politicians will end the crisis of affordability or provide the healthcare Americans need because Washington\u2019s first priority is to maintain the profits of the insurers.
We need to urge our unions, particularly healthcare unions to join in these rallies. 500,000 healthcare workers will be terminated with these cutbacks and our unions need to mobilize their members and those who need healthcare together in this fight.
While both the Democrats and Republicans can pass a $901 billion military spending bill for more war and genocide, they have no money for healthcare for all.

Israel\u2019s genocide machine couldn\u2019t run without power from Chevron. Israel\u2019s war on Gaza and Occupation of Palestine contributes to the climate catastrophe. Chevron supplies light and energy via its operation and co-ownership of two major Israeli-claimed fossil gas fields in the Mediterranean.
Chevron\u2019s extraction activities are funneling millions of dollars in tax revenues to Israeli government coffers, directly fueling Israel\u2019s system of settler colonialism and violence against all Palestinians. In 2022, those revenues amounted to over $462 million.
BDS is a global nonviolent Palestinian led movement, and we demand that Chevron immediately cut its contracts with genocidal Israel, and end its role in climate devastation globally.<\/h1>\n\n\n\nFollowing in the tradition of the anti-apartheid gas station boycotts of the 60s & 70s, Palestinians and allies are building a global movement to hold Chevron accountable for its crimes through a coordinated boycott of Chevron gas stations and products around the world.<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
