We the people ask the federal government to Call on Congress to act on an issue:

United states should come forward for recognition of the State of Palestine

Created by M.A. on October 03, 2016

One possibility is to support a proposed UN Security Council resolution recognizing a Palestinian state based on the 1967 borders. The second is pushing through a decisive resolution against the settlements. The third option is a combination of the two.
As per USIP, tension and hostilities have increased markedly between Israeli and Palestinian societies since the collapse of another round of peace negotiations in the spring of 2014.
135 members of the United Nations officially recognized Palestine as an independent state. Nine(U.S, Canada, Israel etc) against and approx 41 abstentions.
Now people raising this issue around the world and everybody want U.S. to come forward to recognition for the State of Palestine .
