@aocinthehouse: The core values of global democracy — what makes us different from authoritarian regimes — are the upholding of civil and human rights, rule of law, and equal protection of all people. That is why the U.S. cannot in good conscience allow our resources to enable a mass famine in Gaza, which imperils Palestinians and hostages alike. It's also why we must seek a #CeasefireNOW and respect existing U.S. laws that place important conditions on U.S. military aid.
