Message of Solidarity with the People of Israel

. . . Arthur Stark, Chairman, William Daroff, CEO, and Malcolm Hoenlein, Vice Chairman of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, issued the following statement:

“On behalf of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, we send our heartfelt greetings to the people of Israel as they approach the beginning of the Passover holiday. We join in solidarity and compassion as they and we face the modern day plague of COVID-19.

We stand in support  of you and the effort of your government to combat this deadly invisible foe. We are reminded that Kol Yisrael arevim zeh la’zeh, that all Jews are bound and responsible for one another, that we collectively share in the fate of communities around the world and especially in the Jewish State.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and with all under assault around the world. We pray that we can soon again fulfill the proclamation we make at the end of the Seder: L’shana haba b’Yerushalayim, next year in Jerusalem.”​
