TIAA-CREF: Divest from the occupation

Ask one of the largest financial services in the United States to divest from the Israeli occupation.

Campus divestment

Students around the country are calling for investor activism to address human rights violations against Palestinians.

End the siege of Gaza

Tell Obama to hold Israel accountable. Regret is not enough. 

Presbyterian Church USA

 Don't profit from injustice. The Presbyterian Church USA has been considering divesting from the Israeli occupation since 2004. Every other year, they hold a General Assembly. There they address issues related to Israel/Palestine, and they discuss their desire not to profit from human rights violations and injustice. For six years, they have asked Caterpillar to ensure that the bulldozers it sells are not used to demolish Palestinian homes or uproot Palestinian olive trees. Unfortunately, Caterpillar has not changed its practices.
