John,
Last week, hundreds of WFP members came together for a national phone bank urging your members of Congress to support a ceasefire in Gaza. And volunteers and supporters like you helped make it one of our most successful phone banks ever, with over 18,000 calls in just two hours on a Wednesday afternoon.
Over the last month, thousands of Palestinians and Israelis have been killed, and hundreds of thousands of Palestinians have been displaced. With an Israeli ground invasion of Gaza underway, it’s more important than ever that we demand our members of Congress support an immediate de-escalation and ceasefire.
So tomorrow, Wednesday, November 1 at 3 PM ET/12 PM PT, we’ll be making calls again helping voters reach their representatives to call for humanitarian aid and a ceasefire in Gaza NOW. Will you join us?

The number of Palestinian civilians killed by Israeli military strikes is growing by the day. The people of Gaza are struggling to survive amidst a lack of food, water, electricity, and medical supplies, with several hospitals destroyed or forced to evacuate.
The situation will only get worse if our leaders don’t stand up and demand a ceasefire and the delivery of humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza, in order to save as many lives as possible.
WFP champions in Congress have shown the courage to lead this effort, with Rep. Cori Bush’s Ceasefire Now resolution earning support from Rep. Pramila Jayapal, Rep. Barbara Lee, Rep. Summer Lee, Rep. Greg Casar, Rep. Maxwell Frost, Rep. Jamaal Bowman, Rep. Delia Ramirez, and more.
But so many other representatives need to hear from their constituents before they decide whether to support this absolutely necessary ceasefire. By joining our phone bank tomorrow, Wednesday, November 1 at 3 PM ET/12 PM PT, you can help connect voters with their representatives and make a real difference in this movement.
RSVP here to join the phone bank now.
