Do you ever feel like you could get a giant crowd together and scream at the top of your lungs at Congress that there's a massive genocide underway right now, and Congress would behave as though you were a ghost invisible and inaudible in its world?

Maybe you need a louder microphone.

Local governments are passing resolutions demanding a ceasefire in Gaza, and making news by doing so. The more cities and counties pass our demands along to Congress, the harder it is for Congress to ignore.

We've drafted what we hope is a persuasive email to all of your local legislators. You can edit it to add your own words. Click here to give it a try.

Our goal is popular. A good majority favors a ceasefire. But the federal government would rather fuel wars in the name of democracy than listen to a majority of the U.S. public. So, let's go where some modicum of representative government can be found: the local level.

Please send a quick email here. And then ask your neighbors to do the same.
