More than 150 sisters, along with organizations that represent them, have signed a letter urging a halt of U.S. arms shipments to Israel, the release of hostages held by Hamas and more robust efforts to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza.
The May 1 “Letter from U.S. Catholics on Israel-Palestine” directs its message to “fellow Catholic” President Joe Biden, as well as international leaders to do more to end hostilities in the Holy Land.
