A Dream Of Peace (MA Congressmembers Work To Ease Gaza Humanitarian Crisis)

January 30, 2009 By rbguy

Yesterday, Rep. John Olver (MA-01) sent a “Dear Colleague” letter to Secretary Of State Hillary Clinton requesting that the State Department release funds to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) for reconstuction and humanitarian assistance in Gaza.  The letter was signed by a total of 62 Democratic House members, including many from the Massachusetts delegation.

In addition to John Olver, the other MA signatories included James McGovern (MA-03), Michael Capuano (MA-08), Stephen Lynch (MA-09), John Tierney (MA-06), and William Delahunt (MA-10).

The full text of the letter, as well as the full list of signatories can be found here.

These Massachusetts Congressmembers, as well as the rest of the signatories, are all strong supporters of both the Israeli and Palestinian peoples.  They are speaking out to help lessen the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and to commend President Obama on his early committment to the peace process between the Israelis and the Palestinians.  We need to help these candidates as they face pressure from the anti-peace community.  Please visit our fundraising page and contribute to any (or all) of our candidates

In peace

How much time have you spent in #Cambridge, Massachusetts? If I had not commented on the Sayed Faisal case, would you have done it? Be honest, @rasheednwalters. #mapoli

Rasheed N. Walters @rasheednwalters

In the People’s Republic of #CambridgeMA politicians, comrade citizens, and far left activists expect a officer to not defend themselves against a man charging at them with a Kukri Knife which is akin to a machete. These people are insane! They all wanted that officer to die!

I will say this for the @JimLyonsMA crowd - They are quick to weigh in on the events that others first highlight, without adding insight or offering any solutions. Isn’t that right, @rasheednwalters? 😉
