Reps. David Kustoff (R-Tenn.) and Max Miller (R-Ohio), the only Jewish Republicans in Congress, have introduced a resolution condemning the rise in antisemitism.
The action comes amid the conflict between the Jewish state of Israel and the terrorist group Hamas, which has led to a spike in antisemitism in the United States and abroad. The conflict was precipitated by Hamas’s deadly surprise attack on civilians in Israel on Oct. 7, killing at least 1,200 and taking more than 200 hostage. It was the largest single-day massacre of Jews since the Holocaust, when 6 million Jews were killed.
