When rich countries cut already insufficient aid, they betray their promises to the world’s poorest to end hunger & invest in education & public health. It is a moral failure. More from Oxfam’s reaction to today’s OECD numbers on development assistance 👇

Amazon & Walmart's excessive surveillance of warehouse workers is becoming increasingly dystopic. Workers report that the constant pressure for inhuman productivity results in dangerous health & well-being outcomes.

Amazon Walmart stop this harmful surveillance now.

Wishing an #Eid Mubarak to all who celebrate. Eid should be a day of joy, but today, my thoughts are with those in Gaza and around the world who are facing conflict, famine, and displacement. Ghada's moving poem reminds the world of the human toll of the war in Gaza this #Eid .

No one should need to choose between taking care of a sick family member and keeping their job, or struggle to feed their families. No worker should have to sacrifice so much just to make ends meet.
I join care advocates & workers from around the country to say #CareCantWait .

Even as children are starved to death and aid workers are killed in Israeli airstrikes, the Biden administration is doubling down on providing weapons for Israel's military operation in Gaza. The US must pause arms sales & own up to why the death toll continues to climb.

My heart goes out to the loved ones of the 7 World Central Kitchen team members killed in Gaza. Their deaths are not an anomaly: more than 200 aid workers have been killed while delivering aid in Gaza. Each death is tragic, appalling & inexcusable. Humanitarians are #NotATarget .

.OxfamAmerica & Human Rights Watch presented clear evidence of Israel’s violations of international humanitarian law. Yet President Biden seems to be doubling down on supplying the bombs that destroy entire neighborhoods in Gaza. The time to stop lethal arms sales to Israel was yesterday.

Thank you KQED Forum, Alex de Waal World Peace Foundation & Rushdi Abualouf for important discussion on getting aid into Gaza. Famine is imminent in the north where 2/3 HH regularly go days and nights w/out eating. We need a #CeasefireNOW , release of all hostages & safe humanitarian access.

Breaking: Oxfam America & @HRW show that Israel is using US weapons in violation of international & US law & blocking US humanitarian aid since the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attacks on Israel. The US should stop providing military aid and arms to Israel. Read more: oxf.am/4cknmKa

Corporate America is fueling inequality. OxfamAmerica's research finds that the largest public companies in the US are hoarding money & power at the expense of workers & the planet. It's time to create a more equitable economy. Read more here: oxfamamerica.org/explore/resear….

'Palestinians in Gaza aren't starving—they're being starved.'

Oxfam America's Abby Maxman on the worsening humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza and the call on President Biden to urgently act to stop the bloodshed and do more to save Palestinian lives:

As #Ramadan ushers in a spirit of unity and compassion I am heartsick by the relentless conflicts plaguing our world.

I am thinking of Gaza - of unimaginable loss, while Israel gears up for a deadly operation in Rafah. It is beyond imperative that President Biden forges a #CeasefireNOW .

'Care is fundamental to our experience, but it is often ignored, marginalized, uncompensated, & undervalued in society'- a powerful quote from Sen Sen. Kesha Ram Hinsdale as she shares the truth about care work that disproportionately falls on women on this #InternationalWomensDay2024 .

President Biden's #SOTU was a forceful rejection of trickle-down economics.
 
Raising taxes on the ultra-wealthy and corporations is a crucial step toward tackling billionaire excess and extreme inequality.

Getting more aid in to Gaza is critical & hopefully this will allow it to reach people in need. But RIGHT NOW, hundreds of aid trucks sit ready right outside Gaza. We must do all we can. We need a ceasefire, full access for humanitarian aid & the safe return of hostages.
