I spent part of my morning emailing my senators, representative, President Biden, and VP Harris. Here is what I wrote. Please feel free to use my words in your own emails to your reps.

I'm a big fan and support you wholeheartedly but please, please, please cease financial, military, and political support for Israel's attack on the Palestinian people. 33,000 deaths is enough. Bombing innocent people into oblivion and starving to death those who remain is a sickening outrage. You would think that a people who experienced genocide themselves would have more compassion and better sense. They are doing themselves no favors in a neighborhood where they are already reviled and living under threat. Thank you for your time.

I also donated to the World Central Kitchen.
