John,

We are relieved by the recent temporary pause in violence in Gaza and reunification of Palestinian, Israeli, American, Thai & Filipino families. All hostages, including those arbitrarily detained, must be released. This temporary ceasefire is a welcome and necessary start. It proves the effectiveness of de-escalation and diplomacy—not military force—as a means of saving lives and affirms why we must keep up our push for a permanent ceasefire.

We cannot bomb our way to peace—we must keep pushing for diplomatic solutions. We need a permanent ceasefire NOW.

John, add your name to our petition demanding a ceasefire now so that we can continue to save lives and de-escalate

Already over 14,000 Palestinians have been killed, including nearly 6,000 children, more than 30,000 have been wounded and thousands more are at risk of death due to the lack of medicine, food, and water brought on by the ongoing siege of Gaza. When this agreement expires, the bombing will continue, thousands more will die, and millions of people will continue to be displaced. We cannot allow that to happen.

We must continue to vigorously push for a permanent ceasefire that ends this violence, protects and saves lives, and ensures the safe return of all hostages, including those who are being arbitrarily detained.

That’s why we’re asking you to sign on as a supporter of this resolution to pressure Cori’s fellow members of Congress who have yet to sign that the people of this country want diplomatic solutions, not more bombing.

We will win a pro-peace, pro-humanity solution together.

With love and humanity,
Team Cori
