Over 7,000 Americans Urge Congress to Address the Root Cause of Mideast Violence

WASHINGTON, DC (IQNA) – Over 7,000 Americans have so far used CAIR’s action alert to contact their members of Congress, call for an end to the ongoing violence in Palestine.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), the United States’ largest Muslim civil rights and advocacy organization launched the action alert a few days ago.

“We must stop this horrific violence, which is threatening and taking the lives of … civilians every day. We call upon Congress to endorse an immediate ceasefire and leverage its influence to advocate for a just and enduring peace that brings the occupation to an end and respects the rights and dignity of all people in the region,” said CAIR Director of Government Affairs Department Robert S. McCaw.

CAIR’s mission is to protect civil rights, enhance understanding of Islam, promote justice, and empower American Muslims.
