Congratulations advocates! Thanks to your messages to Congress and Hadassah's work behind the scenes, we helped secure the long-awaited appointment of a Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism. Read today's announcement welcoming Special Envoy Elan Carr.

Urge Your Representatives to Stand for Israel

Today, the Senate passed the Strengthening America's Security in the Middle East Act of 2019 (S.1).

We need your help to get this legislation signed into law: act now by urging your Representatives to support this crucial bill!
