FROM SENATOR KIRSTEN GILLIBRAND: “This is antisemitic terrorism, pure and simple. Two Israeli Embassy staffers, murdered on American soil, for no reason other than being Jewish. My prayers are with the victims and their families. I stand with the Jewish community in this moment; we will not tolerate this violence, and this perpetrator will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.”
FROM CONGRESSMAN NICK LANGWORTHY: “This is a horrifying act of moral depravity and unadulterated antisemtisim. The cold-blooded, unprovoked murder of two Jewish diplomats, gunned down outside a museum in our nation’s capitol should send chills down the spines of every American. This is sadly the result of the hate and antisemitism that has been allowed to flourish on our soil. We must stamp out this scourge and stand unified with the Jewish community, here in America and abroad. My deepest condolences go out to the victims’ families and the entire Israeli embassy staff.”
FROM CONGRESSWOMAN CLAUDIA TENNEY: “We are horrified and deeply saddened by the murder of Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim by a pro-Hamas sympathizer in our nation’s capital yesterday. The perpetrator must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and we stand with the Jewish Community. Never again is now. May Yaron and Sarah’s memories be a blessing.”
