In the months since the election of Ferdinand Marcos Jr. and his running mate, Sara Duterte, daughter of outgoing president Rodrigo Duterte, we have seen the United States increase its military presence and military aid to a country where human rights defenders and faith leaders are regularly red-tagged, threatened and attacked.
Take action: Urge Congress to pass the Philippine Human Rights Act to suspend security assistance to the Philippines until the government demonstrates respect for human rights.
Now, more than ever, it is urgent that the United States refuse to fund institutions responsible for human rights abuses in the Philippines. Scroll down to send a message to your representative in Congress to support the Philippines Human Rights Act.
Thank you.
