RELEASE: Gottheimer, Manning, Moskowitz, Schneider Statement on Israel

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, January 19, 2024, U.S. Representatives Josh Gottheimer (NJ-5), Jared Moskowitz (FL-23), Brad Schneider (IL-10), Kathy Manning (NC-6) released the following statement on Israel:

“On October 7, Hamas terrorists brutally raped, burned, beheaded 1200 innocent people, including nearly forty Americans. Hamas must release all of the hostages, including the six Americans, and cease firing rockets at Israel. Once that is achieved, and Hamas is defeated, it will be critical to work toward a lasting peace and a two-state solution — a truly safe and secure, democratic Jewish state of Israel and a state for the Palestinian people. That will ensure a better future for everyone in the region.”
