Oppose Forcible Gaza Relocation Plan, Support Negotiated Peace

To: Pres. Trump, Sen. Fetterman, Rep. Dean, Sen. McCormick

From: A constituent in Lansdale, PA

February 5

The proposal by President Trump to have the United States take ownership and redevelop the Gaza Strip after permanently resettling Palestinians elsewhere raises significant concerns. Such a unilateral move would likely face widespread opposition from allies in the region and could destabilize the fragile ceasefire negotiations. It is vital that any long-term solution upholds internationally recognized human rights and involves the Palestinian people themselves in determining their future. The international community has long advocated for a two-state solution that allows for an independent Palestinian state living side-by-side in peace with Israel. Forcibly displacing over 1.8 million Palestinians from their homeland would be an extraordinary violation of their right to self-determination. It also risks escalating the conflict rather than resolving it. There are complex historical grievances and claims on both sides that require a negotiated political settlement, not unilateral actions. The United States should use its influence to support good-faith negotiations between the parties, facilitated by allies like Egypt and Jordan. Any lasting peace will necessitate mutually agreed borders, security arrangements, and a just resolution for Palestinian refugees. While the devastation in Gaza is tragic, the path forward lies through empowering Palestinians and Israelis to chart their own future through dialogue, not displacement.
