Washington, DC – Today, Congresswoman Julia Brownley (D-CA) issued the following statement marking the horrific attack on the State of Israel on October 7, 2023.
“Today marks one year since the horrific terrorist attack perpetrated by Hamas that killed 1,195 people and took 251 innocent people hostage, including 12 Americans.
