Defend the Right to Protest
Say No to Trump's Executive Order on Policing
Protest Trump's Racist Department of Justice

Jeff Sessions, exposed during the confirmation proceedings for his racists actions and beliefs, is now the Attorney General. As head of the Dept. of Justice (DOJ), Sessions is the chief law enforcement office in the U.S. He is opposed to the Voting Rights Act and to legislation protecting LGBTQ people and undocumented workers.

Trump's recent executive order gives Sessions free rein (http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001pBnm4lkLvgwZzk9-22gfmNqLxb0kIde0USHCt_QszEqTSzLqtNZMSpatVM_MKSCBRB xQyTsll0uYK6IBVyxkBMjNVdG017PCT0ZtDrNgn6OrooDGRZ8p a8ys2WrZxvL0zJPfdR3_O9llqbLb_d-GxbWZLyTZsrxKKINI_bw6s9D7znS3xjXyUXW2Dm61-W8DQkGgpOR-BhZiFgvbETa1yZEcma757xboR17hliArkfmwJgw17a38JDZUnI 6LmGgE0TuGOHlUEfR2kmq7YdakER1xLrAStXy612Plzy66ExY=&c=1h4BZT6xlq4rehH8zHY6HtWvxSgmTlpj9tPbJhOgEfieb2wX 6DGs8g==&ch=gKhcq_Idyfs8xpGWvycMKfhaul39OMWwLuyrWItUnVIJ-cU-uQGCpA==) to enact the most racist and oppressive of criminal legal policies. A license to unleash even more state violence against dissent, to criminalize the Black Lives Matter movement, the Indigenous Peoples' movement at Standing Rock, and the struggle for Immigrant rights and all progressive people's movements.

On Jan 13, 2017 the DOJ released it's damming report on the Chicago Police Dept (CPD), establishing an arsenal of facts proving CPD, the Mayor's office, and City Hall to be racist, corrupt, and unwilling to hold the police accountable when they murder and brutalize Black and Latino communities.

Just this week Sessions dismissed (http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001pBnm4lkLvgwZzk9-22gfmNqLxb0kIde0USHCt_QszEqTSzLqtNZMSpatVM_MKSCBdr GkvdhXswpTt0RzuJJWg-5av2WiCHL_TZbvpJ1drMYT1ferLKBfrnzh7gtrwCJ1owRj0sCU IiO8XOxPUZ_NfgYWlMLtulg1UxuXhDam2AnOh0txYBhNhlqbX8 ak-Q9qc0L68TetjlyI2Jvyob6wGmCLxY3rljaxkv72uUJP0hGHDsT nrledJiPhJNNWwFz53lVZyVAR8haSndrMEMGJWg==&c=1h4BZT6xlq4rehH8zHY6HtWvxSgmTlpj9tPbJhOgEfieb2wX 6DGs8g==&ch=gKhcq_Idyfs8xpGWvycMKfhaul39OMWwLuyrWItUnVIJ-cU-uQGCpA==) the DOJ report on CPD. NO justice for the many cases of police crimes filed by the Chicago Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression. Holding police accountable in Chicago will only be accomplished by community control (http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001pBnm4lkLvgwZzk9-22gfmNqLxb0kIde0USHCt_QszEqTSzLqtNZMSu-jsFtpc9yqAjDYwjgYZ3PeoqBev7apAD7j3CwU27vTyL3wjdnte z9WodSUTV3D3kldFZnjtzIbR0yqY_eNJ4i6XGHCU5AEggSdAL9 SR39su-J0cj4qKZk0bUeb1YNQj665sKbO8cLY8AYX6RpuV7IyCV8ErmGu 3Bv3n4YpExNU&c=1h4BZT6xlq4rehH8zHY6HtWvxSgmTlpj9tPbJhOgEfieb2wX 6DGs8g==&ch=gKhcq_Idyfs8xpGWvycMKfhaul39OMWwLuyrWItUnVIJ-cU-uQGCpA==).

Dear Chris,

On Wednesday, CODEPINK members Desiree Fairooz, Tighe Barry, and Lenny Bianchi were found guilty of disorderly conduct by a D.C court for their actions to oppose hatred and racism at the confirmation hearing of Jeff Sessions. Desiree’s conviction stemmed from her spontaneous laugh when Senator Richard Shelby (R-AL) said Mr. Session's record of “treating all Americans equally under the law is clear and well-documented.”

Even the media was shocked (http://www.codepink.org/codepink_protestors_could_face_a_year_in_prison?e= 247b6f0c69174ee7dfa25e341c4eedfe&utm_source=codepink&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=laugh_1&n=3) at the fact that Desiree is now facing up to a year in jail for laughing at a blatant lie in a Congressional hearing. Sign the petition to tell the Justice Department that Desiree must go free! (http://www.codepink.org/truth_is_not_a_crime?e=247b6f0c69174ee7dfa25e341c4 eedfe&utm_source=codepink&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=laugh_1&n=4)

Desiree spoke out (http://www.codepink.org/desiree_fairooz?e=247b6f0c69174ee7dfa25e341c4eedfe&utm_source=codepink&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=laugh_1&n=5) about her conviction, “I do not regret attending the confirmation hearing of Jeff Sessions and being a part of a visible statement of dissent... I, along with my colleagues at CODEPINK, will continue to speak out against injustice, whether it is mass incarceration, attacks on Muslims and immigrants, or the continuous wars and militarism that is destroying so many lives.”

If you are in DC, join us Wednesday at noon for a Laugh-In (http://www.codepink.org/laugh_in?e=247b6f0c69174ee7dfa25e341c4eedfe&utm_source=codepink&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=laugh_1&n=6) and press conference on the steps of the Justice Department and sign the petition that laughter is not a crime (http://www.codepink.org/truth_is_not_a_crime?e=247b6f0c69174ee7dfa25e341c4 eedfe&utm_source=codepink&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=laugh_1&n=7)! And don't forget to share the image on top of this email on Facebook (http://www.codepink.org/r?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fsharer%2Fshar er.php%3Fu%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.codepink.org%2 52Ftruth_is_not_a_crime%26display%3Dpopup%26ref%3D plugin%26src%3Dlike%26kid_directed_site%3D0%26app_ id%3D126739610711965&e=247b6f0c69174ee7dfa25e341c4eedfe&utm_source=codepink&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=laugh_1&n=8) and Twitter (http://www.codepink.org/r?u=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2Fcodepink%2Fstatus% 2F860524377699438592%2Fphoto%2F1&e=247b6f0c69174ee7dfa25e341c4eedfe&utm_source=codepink&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=laugh_1&n=9).

In the past, arrests like this would have been thrown out. Pursuing this case shows that Trump and his Justice Department are intent on quashing dissent. But CODEPINK has been protesting in the halls of congress and in the streets since its inception 15 years ago and we will not be deterred now. With civil rights and health care being rolled back, a proposed budget of $54 billion more for war (http://www.codepink.org/no54billionforwar?e=247b6f0c69174ee7dfa25e341c4eed fe&utm_source=codepink&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=laugh_1&n=10), and the “Mother of all Bombs (http://www.codepink.org/r?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.theguardian.com%2Fcommentisf ree%2F2017%2Fapr%2F14%2Fthe-mother-of-all-bombs-big-deadly-ineffective&e=247b6f0c69174ee7dfa25e341c4eedfe&utm_source=codepink&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=laugh_1&n=11)” having recently been dropped on Afghanistan, our commitment to resistance is stronger than ever. We will not stop until laughter is celebrated and war is criminalized!

In loving resistance,
Ann, Ariel, Desiree, Jodie, Lenny, Mariana, Mark, Medea, Nabeelah, Nancy, Paki, Paula, Taylor and Tighe
