MEMORANDUM

Posted: October 8, 2023 05:43 PM
From: Senator Steven J. Santarsiero and Sen. Judith L. Schwank
To: All Senate members
Subject: A Resolution Condemning the Terrorist Attack on Israel and Expressing Support for Israel and Its People
 
As you no doubt know by now, on Saturday, the Jewish sabbath, or as it is called in Hebrew, Shabbat — and nearly 50 years to the day after the beginning of the Yom Kippur War, which was deliberately started on Judaism’s holiest day — Hamas launched an unprovoked terrorist attack against Israel, firing over 2500 rockets at cities throughout the country, while invading Israeli communities near the Gaza Strip.  As of this writing, according to many reports hundreds of Israelis have been killed and many have been taken hostage, including civilians and young children. 
 
When the Senate reconvenes on October 16, we will be introducing a resolution condemning this unprovoked and repugnant attack and voicing our strong support for the State of Israel and its people in their time of need.  We invite you to join us by co-sponsoring this resolution.  
 


Introduced as SR191
