Mother's Day

Members marked the upcoming Mother’s Day in statements. Elizabeth May of the Green Party noted that Mother’s Day began in the late 1800s as an annual day for peace, started by women who had seen the effects of the Civil War and the Franco-Prussian War. She said mothers today are affected by wars and violence in places including Ukraine, Palestine, Russia, Israel, Sudan, and Canada, and urged people to use Mother’s Day to call for peace.Written by AI from the debate.
