Progressive Democrats calling for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas faced backlash on Monday for the glaring omissions in their resolution.
Lead by Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.), a group of 13 far-left House Democrats introduced a resolution calling for the "immediate de-escalation and cease-fire in Israel and occupied Palestine."
We must do everything we can to save lives.@RepRashida, @RepAndreCarson, @RepSummerLee, @RepDeliaramirez, and I are introducing the #CeasefireNOW Resolution to call for an immediate de-escalation and ceasefire in Israel and Palestine.
