RE: Ceasefire Resolution
Over the last two weeks, in the midst of two major weather events, I canvased the town of Fort Bragg for signatures related to the Fort Bragg City Council adopting the Ceasefire Resolution.
So many of my neighbors who signed this Ceasefire Resolution have felt powerless against the horror of what is still unfolding a world away. With more than 30,000 already dead from the bombings since October 7th, and so many of those slaughtered women and children, it is hard for any of us to accept this inhumanity and DO NOTHING! I want to share how I am voicing my dissent in calling for a CEASEFIRE. Even though each Friday at noon I join others protesting for a Ceasefire and Peace in the center of town, I also signed my name to this Ceasefire Resolution and gathered signatures from my neighbors. I have found these activities to be a peace-affirming experience. Being able to express my dissent against what’s going on in Gaza has given me PEACE.
Of the people I approached to sign this Ceasefire Resolution, a solid 65% ASKED TO SIGN and jumped at the chance to DO SOMETHING. Many residents of the Mendocino coast stand in solidarity against this genocide and want their concerns for peace represented by the Fort Bragg City Council.
I implore the Fort Bragg City Council to hear citizens of our community who wish to send a message to end the bombing and genocide by adopting this Ceasefire Resolution. Stand in solidarity! A Ceasefire shall benefit ALL CIVILIANS impacted by this confrontation.
DEMANDING PERMANENT CEASEFIRE
Please ADOPT this important Ceasefire Resolution now!
Thank you!
