Jim Carris, a business leader and congressional candidate in Illinois' 10th District, has issued a statement on the one-year anniversary of the October 7, 2023 attacks by Hamas-led Palestinian armed groups on Israel. The attack resulted in over 1,200 Israeli deaths and left more than 60 people, including four Americans, in captivity.

Carris emphasized the severity of the situation: “Today marks the solemn one-year anniversary of the brutal, coordinated attacks carried out by Hamas-led Palestinian armed groups on October 7, 2023 on Israel, leaving a tragic impact on countless families and the global community." He continued to highlight that "the abduction of hostages and ongoing captivity is a crime against humanity that demands our urgent and unwavering attention."

He pointed to these events as reminders of ongoing threats to Israel from Iranian proxies like Hamas. Carris stressed that innocent lives are at risk and called for strong action: "The families of these hostages deserve nothing less than our full commitment to bringing their loved ones home."

Carris expressed his support for Israel during this difficult time: "On this somber day, we stand in solidarity with the people of Israel and those affected by the brutal actions of Hamas." As an advocate for peace and safety in the region, he reaffirmed his commitment to these causes.

Carris is running as an independent candidate focusing on issues such as economy, public safety, and national security. More details about his campaign can be found at www.CarrisforCongress.com.
