During the Monterey Park City Council Meeting on April 17^th our City Council Approved This Agenda Item:

3-D. A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF MONTEREY PARK SUPPORTING A

PERMANENT BILATERAL CEASEFIRE TO THE CONFLICT AND HUMANITARIAN CRISIS

IMPACTING GAZA AND ISRAEL

It is recommended that the City Council consider:

(1) Adopting a Resolution of the City Council of Monterey Park supporting a permanent

bilateral ceasefire to the conflict and humanitarian crisis impacting Gaza and Israel; and

(2) Taking such additional, related, action that may be desirable.

There were 30 speakers on this issue.  They demanded that our City Council approve this resolution.

Thomas Wong asked how many speakers were Monterey Park residents. The City Clerk said they did not list the home addresses on their speaker cards.

The Council heard from 18 speakers who asked the City Council to please honor their request to approve this resolution.

The speakers were very emotional on this issue.

Our City Council thanked all of the speakers before they had their discussions on the issue.

Our City Council decided to vote to approve this resolution.

Thomas Wong said they will send the resolution to our Congressmember Judy Chu but that City Council can not dictate to our federal government.

APPROVED RESOLUTION NO. 2024-R20 AS

AMENDED TO AMEND THE TITLE TO AND

SECTION ID

MOTION BY: SANCHEZ

SECONDED BY: YIU

COUNCIL MEMBERS:  Thomas Wong, Vinh Ngo,  Yvonne Yiu, Henry Lo and Jose Sanchez all voted to approve this resolution.

You can review a re-play of the April 17^th Meeting and also read the minutes of this meeting.

On April 20^th the House passed the $95 billion Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan aid packages was sent to the Senate for their approval.

On April 23^rd the Senate passed the $95 billion Ukraine, Israel and Taiwan aid packages and sent the aid packages to Present Joe Biden to sign.

On April 24^th Joe Biden said he would sign it into law and send the funds out that day.

Currently the world is facing war in the Middle East, China wants to take over Taiwan, Russa wants to take over Ukraine so our House and our Senate is sending money to help these countries save themselves from these Evil Nations.

Many people recall that these  current issues remind them of World War II where we fought against Germany and Japan.

Many voters are angry with Democrats for forcing four Indictments on Republic Candidate Donald Trump.

It seems they are desperate to have their candidate Joe Biden to serve four more years.

Remembers many of his handlers are members of the Obama’s White House staff.

I don’t believe that our United States of America can survive four more years of Inflation, the invasion of Illegals who many of them are committing crimes against our citizens without paying a legal price for their crimes, George Soros’ District Attorneys who do not prosecute these criminals, and the lack of respect for our fellow humans because they look different from us, have different religious beliefs, have a different education from us and have a different ability to support themselves and their families.

Yes, our country was founded by Immigrants who came to our United States of America to participate in our American dreams.

They were eager to become proud Americans. They learned our American language, worked for American wages, paid their taxes and participated in our election processes.

Now we have Illegals who only want all of the free money, free phones, free housing and want to continue their criminal actions they brought into our country from their home countries.

Please decide before November 5^th if you want to live in Free Country or do you want to live-in a Communism and Socialism country. This political system provides political and economic systems that are related but often confused with each other. Both reject capitalism in favor of wealth equality, public control of the means of production, and economic power for the working class.

Your vote will determine the future of our United States of America.

Please consider the fate of your children and grandchildren as you vote for their future.

May God continue to bless all of us and help us from starting World War III.
