Peace Action is thrilled to endorse Adam Hamawy in New Jersey’s 12th Congressional District.
Dr. Adam Hamawy, a combat trauma surgeon who treated Senator Tammy Duckworth during their joint deployment, went on to volunteer in war and disaster zones, including in Bosnia, Haiti, Sudan, Colombia, Belize, Syria, Lebanon, Palestine, Turkey, and Jordan. In 2024 and 2025, Hamawy went on medical missions to Gaza, where he ended up trapped when Israel seized the Rafah Crossing. He has been a consistent critic of US support for the ongoing genocide.
"For me, foreign policy is not some far off thing – it’s personal. These experiences have shaped my core principles of foreign policy: diplomacy, restraint, and humanitarianism. The U.S. government should broker peace, not war. It should send books, not bombs. It should build, not destroy. It should benefit people, not corporations."
Supporting candidates like Adam Hamawy through Peace Action lets them know that diplomacy and peace issues are a priority that you want to see them take leadership on. Please support Adam Hamawy today!
