AA4 launched an advertisement campaign in Illinois along with a coalition of supporters to raise awareness among taxpayers about their unwitting contribution to the crisis. The campaign encourages Illinois voters to either leave the presidential race “Blank” or to write in “Gaza” in the upcoming primary on March 19th.
Moreover, AA4 extended its advocacy efforts to Georgia by participating in the Listen to Georgia Coalition, where an ad was released prior to the state’s March 12th primary. This initiative resulted in over 15,000 protest votes against the genocide. “Chicago is home to the largest Palestinian Community in the nation” says AA4 organizer and Chicago resident Rush Darwish. “Illinois is considered a solid blue state but we must send a clear message there are thousands of voters who are solidly against a genocide in Palestine”.
