In a troubling move, the U.S. vetoed a crucial UN resolution demanding an immediate ceasefire between Israel and Hamas on December 11, 2024. This isolation from global calls for peace further inflates the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. This is the fifth veto since October 2023!

Trump's plan to redefine birthright citizenship could strip away rights for children born to undocumented parents. If only one parent is legal, the child remains a citizen, but this risks creating a generation of stateless individuals. We must protect every child's right to belong!

The UNRWA can no longer ensure safe delivery of humanitarian aid in Gaza due to security concerns. The people face grave threats from military actions and famine.
