ACTION NEEDED
The October 7 Hamas attacks and Israel's subsequent ground invasion of Gaza threaten to plunge an already-volatile Middle East into a new era of never-ending conflict.

This violence isn’t going to bring safety or liberation to anyone -- it’ll only breed more fear, hatred, and trauma. That’s why we continue to call for a ceasefire.

A ceasefire can save lives in Gaza by stopping the bombing and allowing opportunities for critically needed humanitarian relief. It can help ensure hostages can be reunited with their loved ones. When we demand that the U.S. government agitate for one, it is us saying that everyday people in Gaza deserve dignity -- and their horrific treatment has no justification or excuse.

A ceasefire can provide safety for people in Israel. Violence begets violence. Every moment this conflict continues puts people in Israel in danger.

A ceasefire can make a massive and immediate positive difference in people’s lives. And that’s why we need every member of Congress speaking out in support of this simple demand now.

This is the moment to keep pushing to both protect people across Israel and Palestine while preventing a catastrophic regional war from breaking out. We need more voices to join the call -- and that’s where you come in. Sign now to call on every member of Congress to publicly support a simple demand: Save Lives, Ceasefire Now.
