Minneapolis and Somerville, MA, Pass Gaza Ceasefire Resolutions
---------------------------------------------------------------

Two more U.S. cities on Thursday passed resolutions for a ceasefire in
Gaza. Minneapolis's resolution, approved in a 9-3 vote, also called for
an end to U.S. military funding for Israel. Meanwhile, Somerville became
the first Massachusetts city to pass a ceasefire resolution, after
months of constituent organizing. Cambridge, which is home to Harvard,
is expected to pass their own ceasefire resolution on Monday.
