Our Statement on the US attacks on #Iran. We call on Congressman John McGuire and @kaine.senate.gov and @markwarner.bsky.social to show courage & stop hiding from their Constitutional duties.

An image of the following statement:
Statement Against the US Attacks on Iran
2 March 2026
Indivisible Charlottesville condemns the US attacks on Iran and the Iranian people. We call for a cessation of military operations by the US and its allies. We call on our elected representatives to do their constitutional duty to block these unlawful actions that are killing Iranians and Americans, harming our national security and economy, and destabilizing the region and the world. We stand with those who have been bravely protesting the authoritarian regime in Iran, and we reject the idea that military strikes will bring the freedom and self-determination the Iranian people are demanding.
A war with Iran is immoral and illegal, and disastrous for the Iranian people and for all of us. The Trump administration unilaterally launched military strikes against Iran without approval from the US Congress or evidence of an imminent threat. Since the war started, hundreds of people have been killed, including multiple US military personnel and Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. A bomb was dropped on an elementary school in Minab, a city in southern Iran, killing dozens of children and injuring dozens more.
We stand in solidarity with the people of Iran and our Iranian neighbors. We resist Islamophobia and xenophobia, which have long been part of the fascist playbook.
With retaliatory strikes under way, the escalation into a regional war looms large. US Military leaders have warned of a prolonged campaign incurring significant costs to US forces and munitions. The US government should be spending taxpayer money on housing, jobs, and healthcare rather than sending Americans to kill and be killed.
We cannot tolerate having our nation's domestic and foreign policy decisions being made in this authoritarian, undemocratic, harmful way. Earlier this year, our elected officials failed to oppose the current US regime's invasion of Venezuela and the kidnapping of its president.…

The only passenger in the car when an ICE officer shot and killed an American citizen in Texas last year had planned to speak up and contradict the government’s account of the shooting. But the passenger, Joshua Orta, died in an car crash on Sunday.

Right wing media has dominated the info space about trans issues. Fox News alone writes more stories about trans people than even LGBTQ news outlets. That doesn't even take into account the influencer space where algo engagement favors this kind of narrative. www.lgbtqnation.com/2026/02/fox-...

lgbtqnation.com

Fox News posts more articles on trans people than any media outlet in the country. Even queer ones. - LGBTQ Nation

The findings bolster what Democrats have long argued, that it's actually Republicans who are obsessed with trans people.

UNREAL! Congressional hearing Tuesday with US citizen Marimar Martinez who was shot by ICE. Rep Garcia notes how the ICE agent bragged to his friends about shooting her, writing 'I fired 5 rounds, and she had 7 holes. Put that in your book, boys." You can NOT reform ICE. Abolish and PROSECUTE ICE!!

Last night, Trump posted a video depicting the Obamas as apes. The most foundational racist idea is likening Black people to apes. Since humans evolved from an ape-like ancestor, racist ideas cast White people as the most evolved people and the furthest away on the evolutionary scale from apes.

TIME SENSITIVE ACTION: Historically, organized labor has achieved gains that extend far beyond its own membership (ie limits on child labor, the 40-hour workweek). These gains depend on workers’ right to collective bargaining, a right that Virginia’s public sector employees currently do not have.

The government’s arrests of journalists @donlemonofficial.bsky.social and @bygeorgiafort.bsky.social are attacks on press freedom. Two federal courts rejected prosecuting Lemon, but instead of accepting that defeat, the government has doubled down. Read our statement: freedom.press/issues/fpf-s...

Quote from FPF Chief of Advocacy Seth Stern that reads:

“The government’s arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are naked attacks on freedom of the press. These arrests, under bogus legal theories for obviously constitutionally protected reporting, are clear warning shots aimed at other journalists.

“News outlets across the political spectrum need to loudly defend Lemon’s and Fort’s rights.“

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Misinformation and rumors cause panic — Share facts only! Try to get the SALUTE information so the sighting can be verified. Not “I saw ICE south of town” but “at about 10am, I saw 4 men in uniforms (couldn’t see what kind) in 2 unmarked black SUVs getting gas at the Exxon on Route 20”
