For six days, people in Gaza have had some respite from incredible violence and terror. Dozens of hostages have been reunited with their families, and more should arrive home soon. Nearly 200 aid trucks carrying vital necessities — food, water, medical supplies, fuel, and more — finally made it into Gaza on Saturday alone. This progress is incredible, but it’s not enough.

The horrors we’ve witnessed during this war will be hard to forget, and the chance that the situation deteriorates again remains high. What happens next will be crucial, and that’s where we come in.

Our voices, petitions, phone calls, and protests, together with those from people across the country and the globe, are making a profound impact. Every day more public officials, including key members of Congress — like Senator Elizabeth Warren and Rep. Jan Schakowsky, who released statements on the matter just this week — are calling to see this ceasefire extended.

With just hours before the truce’s slated end, we need to keep pressuring lawmakers to speak out to sustain the ceasefire, long-term. Sign now to speak out and urge your members of Congress to sustain this deal so it becomes a lasting ceasefire.
