Protesters hold up signs with pro-Palestinian messages in front of the Thatcher Memorial Fountain during a protest and march in response to recent Israeli military strikes on the southern Gaza Strip city of Rafah, in Denver, Colorado on Saturday, June 1, 2024. The central committee of the Colorado Democratic Party on Monday night rejected a resolution on the Israel-Hamas war that called “for a return of hostages, a lasting ceasefire in Gaza and initiation of negotiations for a lasting peace.
“There’s a lot of horror going on,” said Jeri Shepherd, the resolution’s proponent. “We can send a clear message to our voters, to our base and to the president that we need to find another way.” The vote followed a surge of lobbying that had urged committee members to reject the resolution, including from the pro-Israel group Stand With Us Colorado. In an email viewed by The Denver Post, the group called the resolution “unproductive and divisive” and accused it of bias against Israel.
