U.S. Senators Todd Young (R-Ind.) and Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.) led a group of Senate colleagues in a resolution celebrating the release of Israeli-American Edan Alexander, demanding that Hamas release all remaining 58 hostages, and asking the White House to take all possible steps to make this a reality.
“As part of its terrorist attacks on Israel, Hamas took innocent Americans and Israelis hostage. Since that day, we have grieved the lives of those murdered in captivity by Hamas, gladly welcomed home those who have been freed, and continued to demand the safe release of the remaining hostages,” said Senator Young. “I’m glad to join this bipartisan resolution that reaffirms the United States will not give up until all hostages are free.”
“The remaining Israeli hostages have been inhumanely held by Hamas for almost 600 days,” said Senator Rosen. “While I’m overjoyed about Edan’s release, we cannot stop pushing until Hamas releases every single remaining hostage. I’m introducing this bipartisan, bicameral resolution to show that we are united and urge the White House to continue its leadership on this issue.”
U.S. Representatives French Hill (R-AR-2) and Haley Stevens (D-MI-11) led a companion resolution in the House of Representatives.
