Sonoma County's elected representatives in DC have both issued statements on the Israel-Hamas war.

Congressman Mike Thompson, who represents Santa Rosa, said the U.S. "must provide Israel with all of the support they need during this critical time.”

Congressman Jared Huffman, who represents western Sonoma County and the North Coast said, "Israel can and should punish Hamas, but not the hundreds of thousands of Palestinians who have nothing to do with Hamas."
