Quaker Public Policy Institute and Lobby Day

We’ve been saying for over a decade that war is not the answer and that peace is possible through peaceful means. Now Congress is beginning to listen. This November will be focused on this effort–we hope you can join us for FCNL's Quaker Public Policy Institute and Lobby Day. Friends are asking Congress to pivot to peace: shift resources away from the failed militarism and war fighting strategies that have defined our foreign policy for too long and invest more in peacebuilding programs. Spend Thursday learning how to lobby Congress for peaceful foreign policy, then put your skills into practice during the Friday lobby day. (registration fee: $50) For more information, see the FCNL website: fcnl.org/lobbyday Last year, we were over 430 strong as we lobbied for diplomacy with Iran—and it worked. The success of the Iran deal is a testament to the power of the pro-peace, pro-diplomacy movement. You made a difference. Join us as we continue our Quaker witness and lobby to build a pathway to peace.
