Call for an immediate ceasefire and to withhold arms transfers to Israel
Please read the Indivisible.org latest statement below calling for all the parties to do everything in in their power to enact a durable ceasefire, and then call your Senators/Representative:
Contact only your own Representative (Rep. Mike Thompson or Rep. Doris Matsui). Neither has yet signed on to this letter from more than 30 members of Congress calling to withhold arms transfers to Israel– we want our Representatives to take action!
| Rep. Thompson Woodland phone: 530-753-5301 |
| Rep. Thompson web contact form |
| Rep. Matsui Sacramento phone: (916) 498-5600 |
| Rep. Matsui web contact form |
Example call/email script (your own words are best!)
I am a constituent and I am [calling/writing] today to ask [Sen. Padilla/Sen. Butler/Rep. Thompson/Rep. Matsui] to publicly call for a humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza. It’s heartbreaking to witness the loss of civilian life in Gaza and the West Bank stemming from the Israeli military’s campaign. Any humanitarian solution to this crisis starts with stopping the bombs. Achieving safety and security for Israelis and Palestinians will not be achieved through a continued campaign of collective punishment.
I am counting on you to publicly call for a humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza and to use your position to push for an end to hostilities and to deliver urgently needed humanitarian assistance. Please tell President Biden to withhold arms transfers contingent on Israel’s compliance with international law and US laws for security assistance. Thank you.

“It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the onslaught of news about everything that is wrong in our country and our fears about the November election. And there are many articles in the national media that feed these fears but don’t galvanize us into action.”
