An open letter to the President & U.S. Congress

Call for De-escalation and Ceasefire in Israel and Occupied Palestine

I am writing to you as a concerned constituent, deeply troubled by the ongoing conflict between Israel and Occupied Palestine. Recent events, notably the coordinated attack by Hamas from Gaza and Israel's subsequent bombing campaign, have escalated into a grave humanitarian crisis. The loss of life, including civilians and children, is heart-wrenching and unacceptable. The targeting of medical facilities in Gaza, as reported by the World Health Organization, exacerbates the suffering of innocent people caught in this conflict. The situation in Gaza, where 2.2 million residents face a siege, is particularly alarming. The blockade, which has been in place for decades, effectively traps the population in an increasingly dire situation. This form of collective punishment, recognized as a war crime under the Geneva Convention, demands immediate attention and action. In this context, I am writing to urge your support for H.Res.786, a resolution calling for an immediate de-escalation and ceasefire in Israel and occupied Palestine. This resolution is a vital step towards ending the violence and paving the way for a peaceful resolution. It asserts that all human life is precious and that targeting civilians violates international humanitarian law, principles that must guide our actions and policies. As your constituent, I implore you to consider the gravity of this situation and the urgent need for a peaceful solution. Your support for H.Res.786 would demonstrate a commitment to human rights and the pursuit of peace in a region long plagued by conflict. Thank you for your time and consideration of this critical matter. I trust that you will take a stand for peace and justice in Israel and Occupied Palestine.
