Actress Susan Sarandon on Thursday joined protesters on the Hill calling for lawmakers to demand a cease-fire in Gaza and end American funding for Israel.
Alongside progressive activists from groups like Code Pink and Doctors Against Genocide, Sarandon visited the offices of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries and Rep. Ritchie Torres, both Democrats from New York.
The actress drew a swarm of media, police and other onlookers to the halls of the Rayburn Building, a sharp contrast to the groups’ normal reception in Congress.
