Bill Summary
A resolution condemning antisemitism and recent antisemitic attacks in the United States.
AI Summary
This resolution condemns recent antisemitic attacks in the United States, specifically addressing two tragic incidents: the murder of Sarah Milgrim and Yaron Lischinsky in Washington, DC, and a violent attack during a peaceful walk in Boulder, Colorado. The resolution highlights the alarming rise of antisemitism in the United States, citing statistics from the American Jewish Committee and the Anti-Defamation League, which show that 77% of Jewish Americans feel less safe, 90% believe antisemitism has increased, and the FBI reported a 63% increase in antisemitic hate crimes. The Senate resolves to mourn the loss of the victims, unequivocally condemn antisemitism in all its forms, stand with Jewish communities, encourage society to combat antisemitic manifestations, and reaffirm the United States' commitment to fighting hate, bigotry, and violence against Jewish Americans. The resolution emphasizes that antisemitism is not just a Jewish problem, but a threat to democracy and humanity as a whole, and calls for increased awareness, resources, and action to address this growing issue.
