McCormick, Fetterman introduce resolution condemning antisemitic violence
Pennsylvania’s U.S. Senators are pushing for a resolution condemning recent antisemitic violence across the country.
Republican Dave McCormick and Democrat John Fetterman introduced Senate Resolution 288, a bipartisan resolution with 34 other sponsors.
“Antisemitism has no place is America,” McCormick said in a news release. “Since Oct. 7, 2023, the Jewish community has faced unprecedented and persistent antisemitic hate and violence. This hatred cannot stand.”
The resolution cites the recent arson attack on Gov. Josh Shapiro’s residence, as well as other recent incidents of antisemitic violence.
“These appalling attacks on our Jewish communities are not isolated events. After eleven lives were stolen at the Tree of Life massacre in 2018, I’ve felt an even stronger moral obligation to confront antisemitism wherever it appears and stand united against hate,” Fetterman said in the release.
