A group of 60 Democratic House Representatives, led by Rep. Pressley and Rep. Raskin, have written a letter to Secretary of State Antony Blinken, urging the Biden administration to affirm the United States' opposition to the forced and permanent displacement of Palestinians from Gaza.

This action comes in response to President Joe Biden's request to Congress for funding to assist Palestinians fleeing, and amid growing congressional resistance to Biden's Israel policy.
