RJC Forcefully Condemns Antisemitic Attack at Jewish Museum in Washington, DC

Washington, DC - The Republican Jewish Coalition released the following statement condemning the antisemitic attack at the Jewish Museum in Washington, DC tonight.

RJC CEO Matt Brooks said:

The RJC condemns in the strongest possible terms the murder of two staffers from the Embassy of Israel outside the Jewish Museum in Washington, DC. We are praying for the victims and their families. Those responsible for this heinous attack must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, and we have full confidence in the Trump administration to deliver swift and righteous justice.

Since October 7th, we have seen a dramatic spike in lawlessness, violence, sickening antisemitism and anti-Americanism from coast to coast, on our college campuses and on our streets.

This horrific attack requires complete, total, and forceful condemnation from everyone. Silence is not an option—it is complicity.

This a blaring warning to all Americans, across the political spectrum, that the world’s oldest hatred continues to plague our society, and we must stand together to confront it wherever and whenever it appears.
