This Senate resolution condemns antisemitism and recent antisemitic attacks in the United States. Specifically, it mourns the May 21, 2025 murders of Sarah Milgrim and Yaron Lischinsky outside a Jewish diplomacy event in Washington, DC, and the June 1, 2025 attack in Boulder, Colorado where an individual threw Molotov cocktails into a crowd at a pro-hostage walk, injuring multiple people. The resolution presents data showing a dramatic surge in antisemitic incidents since October 2023, including a historic high of 9,354 antisemitic incidents in 2024 and a 63 percent increase in antisemitic hate crimes in 2023—with Jewish Americans representing just 2.4 percent of the population but accounting for 68 percent of religiously motivated hate crimes. The resolution calls on society to denounce and combat antisemitism, supports the use of federal security grants to protect nonprofits, and reaffirms the nation's commitment to fighting hate and violence against Jewish Americans. This is a symbolic measure expressing the Senate's position rather than legislation that creates new programs or funding.
