Please take a brief moment to join GABRIELA USA, Anakbayan-USA, and BAYAN USA in today’s national call-in action by calling Philippine Ambassador Cuisia at (202) 467-9366 to express our outrage and condemnation of the Enhanced Defense Cooperation Agreement (EDCA) and to demand that the Aquino administration uphold Philippine sovereignty by junking EDCA. Unequal agreements between the US and Philippines like EDCA and the Visiting Forces Agreement (VFA) are direct causes of Jennifer Laude’s murder and attacks on countless other women and children due to US military occupation. With the implementation of the EDCA, we can expect these human rights violations to worsen.
