Families plead alongside bipartisan group of senators more action to release hostages held by Hamas
Fox News
Over 100 days after Hamas's attack, families of hostages plead for intensified U.S. and Israeli efforts, joined by bipartisan senators in an emotional press conference.
Jamie Joseph is a writer who covers politics. She leads Fox News Digital coverage of the Senate.
"I discussed with a few of the families some new strategy that we can implement. And I promise to try and do that," Schumer said Wednesday. "There are always new initiatives as there are right now. And we are making slow, slow, slow, but important progress. Not that that progress can't come fast enough. And let me be clear, if Hamas had any basic shred of humanity, they would have released the hostages already."
Schumer and other senators did not immediately expand on what those new strategies or initiatives would entail.
