Casey Chlebek Statement on Gaza Hostage Release and Steps Toward Peace

U.S. Senate Candidate Praises Trump Leadership, Calls for Continued Progress Toward Lasting Stability

PARK RIDGE, ILL – October 14, 2025 – “Yesterday was a great day for humanity, indeed, a new beginning. The release of hostages and the first real steps toward peace in Gaza give families around the world a reason to take a breath of relief after so much pain and uncertainty. I join others in praising President Trump for the leadership and determination that helped make this breakthrough possible. His resolve once again shows that peace through strength is not just a phrase, but a principle that works.

The relief of seeing innocent lives freed reminds us that every human life deserves dignity, safety, and hope. True peace is not achieved by taking sides — it is built through moral clarity, courage, and a commitment to fairness.

This moment reflects exactly what my MULA vision — to Make the U.S. Loved Again — stands for: restoring America’s role as a respected and principled leader on the world stage. When we lead with both strength and compassion, we remind the world what America can and should be.

Let’s all pray this progress continues, and that the spirit of peace we saw yesterday becomes the foundation for lasting stability, and not just for the Israeli and Palestinian people, but for the rest of the Middle East and all the peoples of the world.

 We are all longing for it!”
