“It’s our intent to take this report, its recommendations, and act,” Speaker of the House Mike Johnson stated.
(Dec. 19, 2024 / JNS) U.S. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-La.) released an investigative report from six congressional committees about Jew-hatred in the United States after Hamas’s terror attacks in southern Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.
The Republican staff report, which is based on seven months of committee investigations, describes “astounding” failures on the part of federal government departments and agencies. The report, which was released on Thursday, states that universities across the country likely violated the civil rights of Jews in their handling of anti-Israel campus protests.
“It’s our intent to take this report, its recommendations, and act,” Johnson stated. “We’ll use what’s in here to continue protecting our Jewish brothers and sisters from discrimination and violence. But make no mistake, we will continue these efforts in the next Congress, and anytime antisemitism rears its ugly head, the House will shine a light on it and take action.”
