“Anti-Semitism has reared its ugly head on our very shores. It should be extinguished entirely. Over the past few weeks, we have seen anti-Semitic demonstrations take place across the country. Turn on the television, open a newspaper, or go online and you will find a litany of examples. As Rabbi Moshe Hauer mentioned in his testimony before the Subcommittee on Higher Education and Workforce Development recently, the plague of anti-Semitism has afflicted the United States. Mr. Speaker, I agree with Rabbi Hauer's assessment, and it is incumbent upon us all to stand with the Jewish community, push back on anti-Semitism wherever and whenever it crops up, and rid our country of this scourge. Anti-Semitism has no place in any civil society, especially the United States--not now, not ever. I include in the Record a letter of November 14, 2023, from Rabbi Moshe Hauer. Orthodox Union, New York, NY, November 14, 2023 Rabbi Moshe Hauer Testimony--House Education and the Workforce Committee Subcommittee on Higher Education and Workforce Development ``Confronting the Scourge of Antisemitism on Campus'' Mr. Chairman, Ranking Member, and Members of the Subcommittee: My name is Rabbi Moshe Hauer. You have heard and will hear individual stories of what life has been like for Jewish students on America's university campuses. I would like to share with you the bigger picture.…”
