Costa Statement on Ceasefire Agreement

WASHINGTON – Congressman Jim Costa (CA-21), a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee released the following statement:

"Over a year of conflict and profound suffering, a ceasefire has finally been reached between Israel and Hamas. This is long overdue and exemplifies the power of America’s diplomacy when we work together with our partners in the Middle East.

I commend President Biden for his bold, steadfast leadership in securing a ceasefire and bringing the remaining hostages home. We must continue working towards a two-state solution and ensuring peace in the region.”
