Do not click links or open a?achments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe. Hello, I wanted to reach out again regarding the ceasefire resolu?on coming up next Tuesday. I am really hoping we can gain your support for this resolu?on and show the city of Faye?eville, state of Arkansas and en?re country, we value human lives. I believe in this council and knowing a Ukraine resolu?on was passed unanimously (8-0), gives me hope we will see the same result come next Tuesday! Thank you for ?me and looking forward to celebra?ng this achievement together!

It’s mass murder of thousands of people with OUR tax dollars and bombs being used to do it. We must stand up as a community and say we do not support this and we will not keep funding this. Arkansas sends millions to Israel directly and that money could be used to help us and our community, rather than fund the destruc?on of another. > > Thank you for your ?me and I hope we can get your support on this resolu?on as truly, it’s life or death for Pales?nians. > > Best wishes, 1 > Walker Morris > > 4175407556 (here is my number if you would like to discuss this over a phone call) > > P.S.: a?ached are a couple poems I wrote as some?mes the only way to express pain is wri?ng it out. > <cid:4FEFDF67-9993-4BAD-B678-99FE0C467816-L0-001.jpeg> > <cid:10A55E7E-8237-4594-BDEF-64BE1D3FEFDD-L0-001.jpeg> > > Sent from my iPhone 2
