If a president backed by oil companies wants to occupy Venezuela, then we the people are done funding it. Starting this week, we’re launching wildcat consumer gas strikes against the pump, until the U.S. commits to not occupying Venezuela. *** What we mean by wildcat: these strikes will happen and be called at random.
Cut the Fuel commences on Thursday January 8th. Do not buy gas of any kind on January 8th. We will show these gas and oil companies our collective power. Then we will release dates at random: to not buy gas, picket and do local creative actions of your choice. Our fundamentals: keep it safe and be safe.
***We understand that some people run small businesses, provide emergency services, or may have urgent situations that require fuel. Please do what you need to do to get by and keep people safe. This action is about collective pressure not punishing those who may need to refuel that day to survive or serve their communities. So spread the word.
