Commissioners Luke Taylor and George Lippman (both Jewish) wrote the Ceasefire Resolution and introduced the Resolution to the public before public comment began. No ceasefire resolution has made it to the draft Berkeley City Council agenda. Anything submitted by boards and commissions for consideration by the City Council is subject to review by the City Manager. Hahn, who has explicitly stated that she opposes a ceasefire resolution, is running for mayor against Kate Harrison and Adena Ishii, both of whom have expressed their support for a ceasefire resolution. But we have a majority of mayor and councilmembers who are firmly opposed to any ceasefire resolution.
