Today working people face escalating costs of food and energy, recession, growing insecurity and attacks on efforts to unionize. The continuing wars and military provocations have brought us to the brink of nuclear war.
Yet, during this election period, imperialist foreign policy has been getting little attention. It is time for us to be back in the streets to demand an end to US wars and provocations.
While the U.S. pours more weapons into the proxy war in Ukraine–holding open the possibility of direct confrontation with nuclear-armed Russia - the war fanatics in Washington seem determined to start even more fires around the world. Nancy Pelosi’s trip to Taiwan; hints that the U.S. may be moving towards confrontation with China as well as strikes against Iran; and reports that new U.S./South Korea war games will practice a "decapitation" strike against the north (DPRK), all show the urgent need to speak out.
Stop US/NATO Wars and Sanctions from Cuba and Palestine to Russia and China
We need $billions for Housing, Health Care, Jobs and Climate - NOT for War Profiteering

Join us on the Public Good. Our guests next week are Jerome Wright and Steve Hart with the Buffalo/WNY Campaign for Alternatives to Isolated Confinement - . They’ll be discussing the Humane Alternatives to Long-Term (“HALT”) Solitary Confinement Act.
The Act was passed in New York State during the 2021-2022 legislative session and went into effect April 1, 2022. It restricts the use of segregated confinement and creates alternative therapeutic and rehabilitative confinement options.
However, has gotten pushback and has been subject to scrutiny, particularly among corrections officers whose legal challenge to the Act was dismissed by a federal judge in June.
Jerome and Steve will talk about their advocacy around , why it’s important, and will address concerns around the Act and its implementation.
Join us next week - and every week - for The Public Good on Facebook Live and Tuesdays at 10:30am on Power 96.5 WNY FM/Mix 1080AM.
