Pursue diplomatic solutions to Israeli-Palestinian conflict and limit violence

As constituents affected by the ongoing violence in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, we urge you to reconsider the provision of military aid and funding to Israel. The recent airstrike that killed 10 civilians, including 5 children, in Gaza is a tragic consequence of perpetuating this cycle of violence. Rather than enabling further escalation through material support, we implore you to pursue diplomatic solutions that protect innocent lives and pave the way for a just and lasting peace settlement. The human cost of this protracted conflict is too high, and bold leadership is needed to break the patterns of destruction and retaliation. We call on you to prioritize dialogue, humanitarian relief, and conflict resolution efforts aimed at addressing the root causes and bringing all parties to the negotiating table.
