Two New Laws Advance Security for California’s Diverse Communities
@CAgovernor @BauerKahan @AsmJesseGabriel @SFJCRC @ADL @JFedLA @Jewish_Cal @CAJewishCaucus
The House is expected to vote tomorrow on an amendment proposed by @RepThomasMassie that would cut off all U.S. assistance to Israel, including non-security aid that funds people to people cooperation and humanitarian programs.
This extreme and dangerous proposal risks jeopardizing America's long-term security interests in the Middle East and the prospects for a more stable region.
U.S. assistance to Israel is not just support for an ally. It is a strategic investment in America’s own interests and for a more prosperous future for Israelis and Palestinians.
ACT NOW: Tell Congress to shut down this amendment: act.ajc.org/campaign/165490/
We are extraordinarily grateful for an engaging meeting with @GermanyinSF to discuss issues of shared importance, including confronting antisemitism, democratic values, and the World Cup!

AJC N. Cal is deeply appreciative of SJPD's investigation of the assault on Santana Row that led to felony and misdemeanor charges filed against three defendants and we are thankful that the hate crime investigation is ongoing. We ask witnesses to come forward and cooperate and hope the accused will be held fully accountable for the crimes they committed.

Local and National leaders must redouble efforts to confront the very real danger facing the Jewish community throughout the country. ajc.org/AntisemitismReport20…
We extend deepest thanks to the German (@GermanyinSF) , Israeli (@IsraelinSF ), and Greek Consulates of San Francisco, 27 represented nations, & AJC’s community partners, including Congregations @templeemanuelsf & @SherithIsrael, JCFS, and Chief Lew from @SFPD ) for uniting in remembrance on International Holocaust Remembrance Day. Memory endures through collective action. #NeverForget

As the Richmond City Council weighs a resolution to censure Mayor Eduardo Martinez for a pattern of antisemitic rhetoric, the local Jewish community and our allies have been active in calling for his resignation.
“The Richmond Jewish community is absolutely taking the lead,” JCRC’s Jeremy Russell told @Richmondside, describing the ongoing effort to hold Mayor Martinez accountable.

JOINT STATEMENT: ON SENATOR SCOTT WIENER'S USAGE OF THE TERM "GENOCIDE"
We are deeply disappointed that Senator @Scott_Wiener posted a video in response to last week’s congressional debate that accuses Israel of committing genocide. We recognize that Senator Wiener has been a strong supporter of the Jewish community throughout the Israel-Hamas war and his many years of public service, and that he has directly experienced antisemitic attacks simply for being Jewish.
Unfortunately, Senator Wiener’s newly stated position is both incorrect and lacks moral clarity.
The diminishment and weaponization of the term “genocide” in this context has been deeply painful for our community, given our own historical experiences with the Holocaust. Since October 7, 2023, Jews at home and around the world have continued to experience relentless targeting and scapegoating, including acts of deadly violence. All too often, those harboring antisemitic views have used the war to justify their hatred of our community.
The devastation throughout this war – including the loss of life in Gaza and Southern Israel – has been felt by us all. Yet framing this conflict in reductionist and inflammatory terms fuels further hostility toward our community.
We believe that words matter. We call on the Senator and our elected, civic, and education leaders to recognize and reflect on the consequences of their words in this fraught and polarizing environment.

.@MayorEduardo Martinez disgracefully amplified antisemitic tropes by promoting dangerous conspiracy theories, which deny or seek to justify the horrendous murders of the terrorist assault on Bondi Beach on the first night of Hanukkah. It is irresponsible and unacceptable for anyone, let alone an elected official, to peddle such hatred. And Mayor Martinez has excused and rationalized terrorism in the past. His dangerous rhetoric must be unequivocally condemned. He is unfit to represent the people of Richmond, California.

Our statement on the horrific attack on Bondi Beach in Australia. Antisemitism and hatred can never be tolerated. The SFPD is increasing patrols at places of worship and Jewish community events around the city.

I am heartbroken by the devastating attack in Sydney. Hate and antisemitism have no place in our world or in San Francisco.
As the San Francisco Jewish community gathers to celebrate the start of the Hanukkah season, the San Francisco Police Department and our public safety partners are prepared and will be in close coordination to ensure everyone can observe the holiday safely and peacefully.
Northern California AJC retweeted
During an early evening celebration, Jewish families in Australia were horrifically gunned down in a vile act of terror.
California’s heart is with Australia today as we stand with the Jewish community worldwide against a rising tide of antisemitic violence and hate.
Antisemitism has no place in our world.
