The National Labor Network for Ceasefire, made up of unions representing over half of all U.S. union members, is calling on local unions and individuals to join UE, UAW, and other national unions in demanding that the President and Congress end lethal military aid to the Israeli government, in order to secure an immediate ceasefire and the release of hostages.

The unions state, “We, members of the American labor movement, mourn the loss of life in Israel, Palestine, and Lebanon. We express our solidarity with all workers and a shared desire for peace in Palestine and Israel and condemn all acts of hate committed against Muslims, Jews, or anyone else.

“We call on the President and Congress to uphold U.S. and international law and halt lethal military aid to the Israeli government to secure an immediate ceasefire that releases the hostages, ends the violence and humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and prevents further escalation in the region. The Israeli government cannot bomb its way to peace.

“With this call, U.S. unions join the voices of more than 90 members of Congress, a majority of the American people, and others calling for an immediate ceasefire.”
