Ro Khanna Joins Congressional Call for Gaza Ceasefire
-----------------------------------------------------

California Congressmember Ro Khanna has become the 43rd Democratic
lawmaker to call for a ceasefire. Activists and Khanna's constituents
have been pressuring the powerful lawmaker to sign onto a House
ceasefire resolution, including occupying his office last month.

In related news, the Detroit City Council on Tuesday became the largest
U.S. city to pass a resolution calling for a ceasefire. Polls show some
two-thirds of Americans support a ceasefire.
