As a reminder, here are the phone numbers of Delaware's Senators:
Senator Tom Carper: (202) 224-2441

call for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza

do more to get humanitarian aid into Gaza
-
And to stop sending our tax dollars/weapons to Israel to continue its genocide
Thank you”
- 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!
