Madam Speaker, I rise today denouncing hate. Whether hate manifests as Islamophobia, anti-Semitism, transphobia, or any other form, hate has no place in our communities. Madam Speaker, that is why I am supporting Mr. Nadler's plan to combat anti-Semitism by implementing the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Anti-Semitism and increasing funding for the Nonprofit Security Grant Program. It is why I am supporting Mr. Green's two-state solution resolution. It is why I signed on to Ms. Wasserman Schultz's letter regarding the safety and security of our college campuses. Condemning hate is not just about words, it requires action.

Madam Speaker, together, we can build a future where compassion prevails. ____________________
