Friend,
Right now, a draft letter is circulating in Congress addressed to Secretary of State Marco Rubio, pressing the State Department to maintain a strong focus on humanitarian aid.
Friend: I’m writing because we don’t yet have your name on our humanitarian aid petition in support of this letter. Can you please add your name now and place a call to your Member of Congress?
This is urgent work. 1.5 million people in Gaza rely on emergency shelter. More than half the hospitals are out of action. Over 98% of agricultural land in Gaza is damaged or inaccessible. Fewer than half of people in Gaza have enough clean water. Over 100,000 young children and breastfeeding mothers continue to suffer from acute malnutrition.
With every person in Gaza still dependent on aid to survive, please join us in keeping up the focus on the catastrophic humanitarian crisis – and pressing the Netanyahu government to follow through on its ceasefire commitments and allow full, unrestricted aid access. Click here to add your name >>
The whole world must continue to exert tremendous pressure to see this deal through: To stabilize Gaza, disarm Hamas, return hostage remains, and hammer out withdrawal agreements as rebuilding gets underway. We cannot afford to go backwards.
Thank you, sincerely, for your support.
