Finally the 2022 election season has come to a close with the re-election of Sen. Raphael Warnock (D-GA). JAC was proud to play a role in that victory. We wrote postcards, raised money, phoned and texted voters. We even travelled to Georgia to knock on doors in critical Fulton county. 

 

We have barely settled the 2022 midterm election, but it seems that 2024 is already gearing up. So far there is nothing new. Donald Trump is once again stoking the flames of antisemitism, with help from his friend Kanye West and white supremacist Nick Fuentes.

 

At JAC, we are thankful that more than 80 JAC candidates will be part of the next Congress. We are grateful for your support which enabled us to send these champions of democracy to Washington.

For nearly 20 years Nancy Pelosi has served in various leadership roles in the House of Representatives. As the first and only woman to serve as Speaker of the U.S. House, she showed women they can and should have a powerful voice and a seat at the table.

 

Under her guidance, major legislation, such as the ACA, was passed that has impacted the lives of millions of Americans. Her dedication to our country and our democracy serves, and will continue to serve, as an inspiration to all. She paved the way for countless women to choose a career in public service.

These are frightening times to be Jewish in America, and even more so to be a student on a college campus. College should be a safe place for productive conversations about differing opinions. However, as antisemitism has invaded colleges across the country and my personal space, my campus has not been that place.

 

As a Junior at Northwestern University in Evanston, just 30 minutes outside of Chicago, I have seen antisemitic incidents on campus over the past three years.
