At Hanukkah Reception, Biden to Condemn Rising Antisemitism
The Associated Press reports, “President Joe Biden is condemning growing antisemitism in remarks for a Hanukkah celebration at the White House that will include a menorah lighting and blessing.” The event will include speeches from a Holocaust survivor and Michele Taylor, the U.S. ambassador to the U.N., who is also the daughter of Holocaust survivors. The event comes in the wake of a 34 percent increase in antisemitic incidents in the past year, according to the Anti-Defamation League.
