Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Infobox United States federal proposed legislation H. Res. 786, also known as the Ceasefire Now Resolution, is a proposed resolution in the United States House of Representatives. The resolution was introduced by Cori Bush (D-MO) in the 118th congress in October 2023.[1]

The resolution calls the killing of civilians a violation of international law, cites the deaths of Israelis, Palestinians, and Americans and the potential for more deaths as reason for a ceasefire, and calls for the sending of humanitarian aid to Gaza.[2]

Response

Politicians

The resolution has received support from 17 Democratic representatives and no Republican support. President Biden has rejected calls for a ceasefire, saying, "As long as Hamas clings to its ideology of destruction, a cease-fire is not peace."[3] Biden instead called for "humanitarian pauses."[4]

Public

As of November 30, 2023, 65% of Americans supported a ceasefire according to a YouGov poll.[5] "Ceasefire now" has become a slogan during American pro-Palestine protests.[6][7]
