Sign the petition: Save lives and end the blockade in Yemen!
Petition to President Biden:
We urge you to do everything in your power to lift the Saudi-led blockade in Yemen so that fuel and humanitarian aid can enter Yemen and help fight back against famine and mass starvation.
Under Trump’s watch in January, Saudi forces set up a blockade outside of Yemen, preventing food, fuel and humanitarian aid from reaching millions of people literally starving to death in Yemen. Hospitals fighting to save starving children and babies are running out of fuel to keep their generators running.1
This wasn’t President Biden’s problem, he inherited it. But President Biden can end it by urging Saudi forces to lift the blockade so humanitarian aid can reach the millions of people who desperately need it to survive.

The crisis in Yemen was already the world’s worst humanitarian disaster before the pandemic and before this blockade. Now, without aid being able to reach civilians who are fighting like hell just to stay alive, innocent families in Yemen are staring at death’s door.
President Biden has already pulled “offensive” military support for the war in Yemen. That’s a great first step, but now the people of Yemen are facing another crisis: a blockade stopping food, fuel and humanitarian aid.
Many Yemeni people are at risk of famine, starvation, and face constant military crossfire. The people of Yemen need help, not barriers. President Biden can save lives by stepping up now.
