**Quote from Evan Hutchison:**
“I am in this race to call for a permanent ceasefire and an end to the Netanyahu regime’s genocide against the Palestinian people as well as accountability for the terror inflicted by Hamas on the Israeli people. I believe the voters of NY’s 10th Congressional District have had enough of AIPAC-backed Rep. Dan Goldman and his support of a criminal government engaged in war crimes.”
