Actions of Immediate Witness

We selected three potential actions of immediate witness (AIW )for an adoption vote tomorrow. Let me know which you support by emailing me before tomorrow, Sunday, before 8:30 AM. Please begin thinking about how Northwest can take action this summer on the approved AIWs.

The three AIWs that will be up for consideration include:

A. UUs should participate in an interfaith summit to call for action against the humanitarian crisis caused by deportation, incarceration and criminalization of immigrants, particularly the more than 50,000 children who have attempted to enter the U.S. In recent times.

C. UUs should work to end gun violence, a public health threat.

F. UUs should work to extract Ugandan LGBT people safely via the new underground railway developed by the Quaker community.

The following AIWs will not brought for a vote:
B. UUs should work for a 2015 global climate treaty

D. UUs should work for legislation preventing arrest and detention of victims of human trafficking.

E. UUs should work for humanitarian aid for Syrian refugees
