About Us
The Quixote Center dismantles oppressive systems and structures so that vulnerable people are empowered to become the artisans of their own destiny. Inspired by liberation theology, we do this through sustainable development, U.S. policy reform, economic justice, and educational initiatives.
Latest Action
UPDATE: The Haiti Criminal Collusion Transparency Act passed in the Senate as part of the National Defense Authorization Act which the executive signed into law on December 18th, 2025.
This is the result of two years of persistent advocacy and we are grateful to all of you who have contacted your Members of Congress, urging them to support this critical piece of legislation. We must now hold the authorities accountable for the implementation of this law.
URGENT: Tell your Members of Congress to Support the War Powers Resolution
The US military has blown up a total of 29 speedboats between September and December 2025, leading to the death of at least 104 people under unsubstantiated allegations that these individuals were narco-terrorists. The administration sent an ultimatum to the Venezuelan president to resign, or else the US will begin land operations. The deployment of the US military in the Caribbean threatens to destabilize the entire region.
After two failed attempts to pass War Powers Resolution, Senators Kaine, Paul, Schumer and Schiff reintroduced a Joint Resolution in the Senate on December 3rd.
Join us in taking action by supporting this resolution to direct the removal of United States Armed Forces from hostilities within or against Venezuela without Congressional authorization.
Sadly, the Concurrent Resolution led by Representatives McGovern, Massie and Castro failed to pass in the House. We must keep pushing on.
