October 20, 2023
Washington, DC — On October 18, 2023, U.S. Representative Andrea Salinas (OR-06) released the following statement on the ongoing conflict in Israel and Gaza:
“I stand with Israel and unequivocally condemn Hamas’ brutal war on the innocent people of Israel and Gaza. I am also devastated by the horrible destruction and loss of human life we are witnessing right now. It is imperative that we provide humanitarian aid to those who are suffering, in addition to the support Israel needs to defend itself. That is why we must elect a new Speaker of the House as soon as possible. Now more than ever, the United States must show leadership on the global stage.”
