“Mourn the dead, and fight like hell for the living.” – Mary “Mother” Jones
As the Israeli government cuts 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza off from food, water, fuel, and electricity, it is also dropping bombs across one of the most densely populated areas on the planet. The scale of humanitarian catastrophe has never been greater.
With one call, President Biden could demand a ceasefire and pressure Israel to stop immediately. We’ve seen it happen before.
On October 16th, Representative Cori Bush introduced the “Ceasefire Now” resolution which demands that the Biden administration call for an immediate ceasefire and for humanitarian assistance to be allowed to enter Gaza. This resolution is based on the collective demands of Palestinians from Gaza who now live in the U.S.
Over the last two months, people around the country have been calling and writing to their reps, staging sit-ins, and mass protests demanding their representatives join Cori Bush’s resolution. Since then, 60 representatives have either signed onto the resolution or issued their own statements publicly calling for a ceasefire. We need your help to reach more.
It is critical that we demonstrate mass support for this resolution.
Write your member of congress and demand a ceasefire now.
