Israel-Palestine Conflict
Ahsan supports a peaceful political solution to the 75-year-old Israeli-Palestinian conflict. He supports a solution that recognizes the hopes and dreams of people of all faiths living in the region, including an end to the occupation of Palestinian territory. Ahsan condemns the ongoing cycle of violence that has plagued the region for decades, as well as the current military attacks that have killed or wounded thousands of innocent civilians.
The targeting of innocent men, women, children, and families is never justified. Ahsan’s position is clear. Both Israel and Hamas must commit to a ceasefire immediately. If elected, Ahsan pledges to use the full power of the office to tirelessly work for the freeing of all Israeli and Palestinian hostages.
For the United States, this approach means rerouting tax dollars to much-needed investments here at home in support of our local communities. Our residents question why so much funding goes abroad rather than here at home to bolster our first responders, schools, healthcare, transportation, and more.
The high cost of this war isn’t only financial; it has also led to higher instances of antisemitism, Islamophobia, and anti-Arab sentiments. Our communities deserve much better. Ahsan is committed to a United States that advances peace abroad and ensures resilience and prosperity at home.
