This week we recognize Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, and the month of May as Jewish Heritage Month. We honor the 6 million Jewish lives lost to anti-Semitism, hatred, and violence. The Holocaust is not a distant memory. It happened within the lifetime of many Jewish people. We also must acknowledge that this year marks the first Holocaust Remembrance Day since the attacks on October 7. This remembrance day feels different and raw for many of our Jewish brothers and sisters. Let us take the month of May to celebrate Jewish culture, history, and people. Let us also begin this month remembering the millions of souls lost to the Holocaust, acknowledging the many survivors of the horrific events of October 7, and standing with the Jewish community and those who have experienced lasting trauma as a result of anti-Semitism. Let us vow to fight together and say ``never again'' for anyone. ____________________
