321ACTION: International action on Iran, dangerous content online, assault weapons
Ready to make a difference?
Here are three ways to get started:
1. Learn more about the human rights abuses perpetrated by Iran
Last week the United Nations voted to remove the Islamic Republic of Iran from the U.N. Commission on the Status of Women. This vote marks a pivotal step in removing a country with an appalling record of women’s rights from this esteemed body.
To learn more about the recent human rights abuses perpetrated by Iran, watch the virtual discussion “Women, Life, Freedom: A Discussion of the Current Events of Iran with JWI and JIMENA”.

2. Learn about TikTok's dangerous content
TikTok is “bombarding vulnerable teenagers with dangerous content” that could encourage “self-harm, suicide, and disordered eating,” according to a new report from the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH). Despite promises made by TikTok and other tech companies, this report clearly shows that self-regulation has failed.
Read the report “Deadly by Design” to get the full picture and learn what legislators need to do to do to create safer online spaces.

3. Demand a federal assault weapons ban
Time is running out for this Senate to vote on the House-passed bill to ban assault weapons.
We need all hands on deck. Register to join volunteers and advocates from Newtown Action Alliance for an after-hours "Lunch and Lobby" session to #EndGunViolence at 7 pm ET tonight (December 19th).
