City Clerk Office,
Dear Chair Madison, Vice Mayor Rivas, and Councilmember Masuda:

I am writing to urgently request that you pass a resolution creating a citywide ethical investment policy that would include divestment from companies that profit from the genocide in Gaza. As many other cities, counties and universities have done, this ethical investment policy could also include divestment from other genocides and/or human rights atrocities, weapons manufacturers and fossil fuels. I want a policy that aligns with our values as a city, one that enshrines human rights, dignity for all, and a healthy planet.

I urge you specifically to name the genocide in Gaza as part of Pasadena's ethical investment policy because this is the only genocide currently conducted with the financial and military support of the US government, and which has been subsidized with our tax dollars. As a Pasadena community member, divesting specifically from the genocide in Gaza aligns both with the city's current ethical investment policy, and with my values as a taxpayer. I want to invest in our beautiful city, not in the machinery of death.

The legislative policy committee should draft an ethical investment policy that upholds these values. As a tool for administering citywide investments, I urge the committee to draw upon the objective criteria established by the American Friends Service Committee, which uses a transparent methodology to make it easy for municipalities and other entities to craft and administer ethical investment policies. The AFSC screen is created independently and wouid alleviate any burden upon Pasadena to have to research various companies.

I see cities, counties and universities - even other countries - engaged in these efforts. More are standing up every week. It is time for Pasadena to do likewise, to stand up against genocide, and to stand up for human rights and a better future for all. Continuing to invest in these companies which profit from genocide is unconscionable. No amount of money is worth this.

Thank you.

I live just outside Pasadena in Highland Park, my Buddhist spiritual community is in Pasadena, and I shop and spend my money in Pasadena.

City Clerk Office,
Dear Chair Madison, Vice Mayor Rivas, and Councilmember Masuda:

I am Israeli, Jewish and a practitioner of immigration law ( LA Based, but served many a Pasadena resident) as an attorney for over 25 years.

Need I lament of the genocidal horrors, of which you are well aware, that both of my nationalities (Israeli and American) have perpetrated on the collective Palestinian for decades? I ask rhetorically.

For now, please consider the below which is well reposed within your power and control, I am writing to urgently request that you pass a resolution creating a citywide ethical investment policy that would include divestment from companies that profit from the genocide in Gaza. As many other cities, counties and universities have done, this ethical investment policy could also include divestment from other genocides and/or human rights atrocities, weapons manufacturers and fossil fuels. I want a policy that aligns with our values as a city, one that enshrines human rights, dignity for all, and a healthy planet.

The legislative policy committee should draft an ethical investment policy that upholds these values. As a tool for administering citywide investments, I urge the committee to draw upon the objective criteria established by the American Friends Service Committee, which uses a transparent methodology to make it easy for municipalities and other entities to craft and administer ethical investment policies. The AFSC screen is created independently and would alleviate any burden upon Pasadena to have to research various companies.

Thank you.

The legislative policy committee should draft an ethical investment policy that upholds these values. As a tool for administering citywide investments, I urge the committee to draw upon the objective criteria established by the American Friends Service Committee, which uses a transparent methodology to make it easy for municipalities and other entities to craft and administer ethical investment policies.

City Clerk Office,
Dear Chair Madison, Vice Mayor Rivas, and Councilmember Masuda:

As an active member of the Pasadena community (my husband has been a professor at Pasadena City College for 25 years) I am writing to urgently request that you pass a resolution creating a citywide ethical investment policy that would include divestment from companies that profit from the genocide in Gaza. As many other cities, counties and universities have done, this ethical investment policy could also include divestment from other genocides and/or human rights atrocities, weapons manufacturers and fossil fuels. I want a policy that aligns with our values as a city, one that enshrines human rights, dignity for all, and a healthy planet.

The legislative policy committee should draft an ethical investment policy that upholds these values. As a tool for administering citywide investments, I urge the committee to draw upon the objective criteria established by the American Friends Service Committee, which uses a transparent methodology to make it easy for municipalities and other entities to craft and administer ethical investment policies. The AFSC screen is created independently and would alleviate any burden upon Pasadena to have to research various companies.

According to a Gallup poll from July of this year, only 8% of Democrats ("EIGhlT percent"!) approve of Israel's military action in Gaza. Not everyone in Pasadena is a Democrat, but nearly half of all registered voters are. That alone nearly implies that a majority of Pasadena residents disapprove of the Gaza genocide.

Thank you.

I want a policy that aligns with values: that enshrines human rights, dignity for all, and a healthy planet.

I urge you specifically to name the genocide in Gaza as part of Pasadena's ethical investment policy because this is the only genocide currently conducted with the financial and military support of the US government, and which has been subsidized with our tax dollars. As a former resident and frequen visitor of Pasadena, divesting specifically from the genocide in Gaza aligns both with the city's current ethical investment policy, and with my values as a taxpayer. I want to invest in this beautiful city, not in the machinery of death.

The legislative policy committee should draft an ethical investment policy that upholds these values. As a tool for administering citywide investments, I urge the committee to draw upon the objective criteria established by the American Friends Service Committee, which uses a transparent methodology to make it easy for municipalities and other entities to craft and administer ethical investment policies.

Dear Chair Madison, Vice Mayor Rivas, and Councilmember Masuda:

Pasadena has a proud tradition of standing for human rights, from divesting from apartheid South Africa (via FPRS) during the eighties to the Council's declaration acknowledging the Armenian genocide to the unanimous resolution calling for ceasefire in Gaza last march. I want our council to take a stand for human rights, and I want to back up our words with our dollars,

Dear Mayor Gordo and Council Members,
My name is Trinity, and I am one of your constituents Living in Pasadena.

The UN Commission and the InternationaLAssociation of Genocide Scholars have declared that the actions of Israel meet the legal definition of genocide.

The following statistics are stark:

Palestinian deaths: 68,000 or more-most likely an undercount-children: over 14,500 Palestinian Civilians Injured: 11 0,000 - 25,000 are children Journalists killed: 234
Healthcare Workers kilted: 1,589
Children Amputees: over 3,000
Children Orphans: over 39,000 have lost 1 parent or both Thanks to Councilman Rick Cole for his acknowledgment of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and his courage and moral integrity to speak out & recommend the Council do its part in any way to address this.

As community members and your constituents we call on you to agendize to discuss and pass a resolution calling the FPRS board to divest from companies complicit in aiding this genocide, to hold all city investments to this same standard, and to prohibit the city and the FPRS from holding the sovereign debt of genocidal countries and the companies that enable genocides.

It is our moral imperative and collective responsibility to do what we can, and you in particular to represent the will of your constituents, in creating a peaceful and just world.

Sincerely,
Trinity Pike
