RJC Comments on Day Four of the Democratic National Convention

Washington, DC -- Tonight is the last night of the Democrats’ convention and things are only expected to get worse. Worse for American national security, worse for the US-Israel relationship, and worse for American Jews. Unless, of course, we get four more years of President Donald J. Trump.

Washington, DC – Today, President Trump announced that his administration will invoke the "snapback" provision of UNSC Res. 2231, reimposing UN sanctions on Iran that were suspended under the resolution as part of the JCPOA. RJC Executive Director Matt Brooks released the following statement:

RJC Comments on Day Two of the Democratic National Convention

Washington, DC -- Tonight, Democrats will show the world how badly they have failed the Jewish people.

Ari Fleischer: Jewish voters will give Trump the edge in swing states

Former White House Press Secretary Ari Fleischer suggested on Thursday that President Donald Trump’s foreign policy accomplishments and record on Israel will help him make inroads with Jewish voters to close the gap in battleground states in the fall.

Jewish Republicans and Democrats agree on this: Watch Florida

By: Ron Kampeas

WASHINGTON (JTA) — Two Jewish political communities, Republicans and Democrats, met separately and disagreed on just about everything but this: Jews in Florida could decide this election.

Other than that, the virtual meetings Thursday evening, held on the eve of back-to-back political conventions, were occupied by two big ideas: Republican Jews focused on Israel, while Democratic Jews focused on domestic threats to American Jews.

Each community seized on a coincidence: At the Republican Jewish Coalition event, participants thrilled to President Donald Trump’s announcement of plans to normalize ties between Israel and the United Arab Emirates; speakers at the Jewish Democratic Council of America event marked the three-year anniversary of the deadly neo-Nazi march in Charlottesville and what they said was Trump’s failure to condemn it.

Republican Jewish Coalition provides new details on $10 million in general election commitment, largely to help Trump

By: Ben Kamisar

WASHINGTON — The Republican Jewish Coalition expects to spend "millions of dollars on television" as part of its $10 million independent expenditure campaign for November's elections, with the lion's share coming to support President Trump's re-election.

Matt Brooks, the group's executive director, touted Trump's policies on anti-Semitism and on Israel to reporters on a conference call Thursday, hours after the administration touted a deal to normalize relations between the United Arab Emirates and Israel.

The group added more details about its spending plans for the fall which includes TV and digital ads as well as voter mobilization and turnout programs augmented by an investment into building out a strong voter file on Jewish American voters.

Brooks estimated that around 90 percent of the money would go toward helping Trump in key states like Florida, Ohio, Georgia, Arizona and Pennsylvania, but that the work would also act as a "force multiplier to make sure these same voters support our Republican candidates" in down-ballot races.
