Action 2: Keep Calling for a Ceasefire
Along with all of the world, we have watched the events unfold in Israel and Gaza. We share in the expressions of horror and grief at the loss of over 1,400 lives in Hamas’ brutal attacks on October 7 and in the ongoing Israeli bombardment and blockade that have resulted in the deaths of more than 10,000 Palestinians, a number that grows by the hour. We understand that our members and those who share our progressive values may have different and deeply held views about the Middle East. At the same time, we are united by our shared humanity, and this is the context in which we send this message.
We urge our members of Congress to support an immediate ceasefire, to ensure humanitarian aid to residents of Gaza, to continue to demand the release of all hostages, and to block US military aid to Israel that would cause additional civilian deaths in Gaza. Please join us by contacting your Representative, and Senators Duckworth and Durbin with these same demands. Call them daily—it makes a difference!
Senator Duckworth | DC: 202-224-2854 | Chicago 312-886-3506 | Email Sen. Duckworth or call another office
Senator Durbin | DC: 202-224-2152 | Chicago 312-353-4952 | Email Sen. Durbin or call another office
We are also appalled by the increasing expressions of hate in this country that target both Muslims and Jews. Join us in calling out hate in all its forms while at the same time being steadfast in protecting our rights to express our views and to protest the actions of our government.
While some of these Daily Actions come from our own work as Indivisible Chicago Alliance, others are from our many partners working to advance the progressive agenda.
