Today, Congressman Jerrold Nadler (NY-12) released the following statement after President Biden announced the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism:

"I applaud the White House for developing the first-ever national strategy to counter antisemitism.  The strategy’s release today marks a historic milestone in the Biden-Harris administration’s extraordinary emphasis on combating antisemitism amidst a harrowing uptick in antisemitic attacks across the country.

Of course, the work is far from over. As Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee and the most senior Jewish Member of Congress who proudly represents a district with one of the largest Jewish populations, I look forward to working alongside the White House to bring to life the priorities brought forth by this strategy.

Antisemitism is not a new presence in our society, it is a scourge that has plagued Jewish communities around the world for millennia. Today and every day, I am proud to call President Biden a partner and friend of the Jewish people in safeguarding America’s commitment to religious freedom."
