Legislative Alert: Ask Reps to Support Ceasefire and Diplomacy !
Peace and justice cannot be achieved through shooting civilians, holding hostages, conducting air strikes on densely populated neighborhoods, and depriving millions of people of food, water, electricity, and medicine.
Please call your Senators and Congressional Representative (Congressional switchboard 202-224-3121) and urge them to:
*Stand for a ceasefire, de-escalation, adherence to international law and diplomacy.
*Refrain from causing even more deaths through additional weapons to Israel and incendiary rhetoric.
Most important, ask your Congressional Representative to co-sponsor new House Resolution urging “the Biden administration to immediately call for and facilitate de-escalation and a ceasefire” and “to promptly send and facilitate the entry of humanitarian assistance into Gaza.”
