October 9, 2025
Washington, DC – Today, Congressman Bill Foster (D-IL) issued the following statement:
“I’m encouraged by the news that Israel and Hamas have agreed to a ceasefire that will allow hostages to return home and bring much-needed aid to civilians in Gaza who have endured unimaginable suffering. It is essential that both sides fully uphold the terms of this agreement in good faith. This is an important step toward a durable and just two-state solution that protects Israel’s security and allows the Palestinian people to live freely."
