Did you take action for our brothers and sisters in Palestine today?

There can be no more business as usual until there is a permanent ceasefire
As a reminder, here are the phone numbers of Delaware's Senators:
Senator Tom Carper: (202) 224-2441

Calling Script:
“Hi, my name is [Your Name] from zip code [your zip code] and I am requesting [Representative Name] to call for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza. I also ask that we allow for more humanitarian aid to enter Gaza.”
- Need more support to do step 1?
Please sign up to join the WhatsApp group (link below) that is dedicated to keeping you motivated to keep calling - the results have been amazing - we are up to 72 members of Congress who are supporting a ceasefire! We are averaging 150 calls per day but with your help we can get to a much higher number In Shaa'Allah.
