Calling on elected officials and civil society leaders to counter antisemitism and educate the public on the contributions of the Jewish American community.

AI Summary

This resolution calls on elected officials, faith leaders, and civil society leaders to address the rising antisemitism in the United States, particularly in the wake of the October 7, 2023 Hamas attacks on Israel. The resolution highlights that 77% of American Jews feel less safe, and nearly 70% have experienced antisemitism online, with 83% of Jewish college students reporting experiences of antisemitism. To combat this trend, the resolution urges leaders to condemn antisemitic acts and educate the public about Jewish American contributions across various fields, including notable inventions like the slow cooker, shopping cart, word-processing computer, and Barbie doll. The resolution specifically calls on the executive branch, state, and local leaders to uplift Jewish stories and voices, and to take all possible steps to ensure the safety, security, and dignity of American Jews in all aspects of their lives, including workplaces, college campuses, synagogues, and homes. By emphasizing education and awareness, the resolution aims to counter hate and recognize the significant role Jewish Americans have played in the nation's development.
