A group of 19 Democratic senators have sent a letter to President Joe Biden, pushing to lay a foundation for establishing a two-state solution in the conflict between Israel and Palestine.

The initiative was led by Sen. Tom Carper (D-Del.). In the letter, the senators called for establishing a “bold, public framework” to create a non-militarized Palestinian state” in post-war Gaza, based on a diplomatic solution in the conflict, a statement from the senator’s office said.
