Native News Online: Rep. Sharice Davids Calls for Biden to be Clear on Calling for End of the Violence in Middle East

I believe a solution that preserves the dignity of every life and respects the rights of both peoples is possible. This horrific cycle of conflict only takes us further from that goal."
