Pass a permanent ceasefire resolution immediately


Template Letter:

To Whom It May Concern:

I’m writing on behalf of a Palestinian Solidarity coalition, which contains residents of the City of Santa Cruz, City of Watsonville, and County of Santa Cruz.

I am writing to strongly urge you as an elected official to pass a resolution that calls for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza and all of Israeli-occupied Palestine.

In this resolution, I strongly urge you to call for:

1) an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza and all of Israeli-occupied Palestine.

2) the safe and immediate passage of substantial humanitarian aid to Gaza.

3) an end to the U.S. government’s funding of apartheid Israel ensuring that our tax dollars are not used in genocide and occupation.

4) an end to over 75 years of Israeli occupation of Palestine.

It is crucial to me that this resolution in no way, shape, or form dehumanizes Palestinians and/or Jewish people when making these demands.

Thank you for summoning the compassion, empathy, and leadership required to stand for a world where genocide is wrong, no peoples are oppressed, and lasting peace can be realized.

I request that you respond to this message with your position on the demands listed above.

Sincerely,

[Your Name]
