Mobilize Again to Demand That the Alameda County Board Divest From Apartheid

At this meeting, the Alameda County Board of Supervisors will vote on the letter directing Alameda County's Treasurer to divest the county from companies involved in Israeli apartheid and genocide. This letter was introduced on November 12, but councilmembers Miley and Haubert voted to delay the vote until the December 10th Board of Supervisors meeting. That's why we’ll be packing the house at 9:30AM, as we anticipate that this motion is going to get delayed again by Supervisor Miley.

If the action is not delayed we'll be packing the court again at 4PM as that is when it will be voted on as public comment will be taken then. It's critical we come out in force to show strong community support for divestment across Alameda County both to keep the action from being delayed but also to see that the item is passed.

In the meantime, we're asking that all county residents contact Treasurer Levy and their supervisor urging them to support divestment using our Action Network (AN) campaigns ahead of Tuesday's meeting.
