红杏视频 Comment on Trump Admin Anti-Semitic Declarations
October 22, 2020 9:45 am
The Trump administration is considering declaring several international nonprofits, including Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch, as anti-Semitic.
Below is comment in response from Kate Ruane, 红杏视频 senior legislative counsel:
"This is yet another attempt by the Trump administration to punish groups for expressing messages that Trump doesn鈥檛 like. By equating criticism of Israel with anti-Semitism, Pompeo aims to suppress and chill legitimate advocacy in support of Palestinian human rights. Threatening to block government funds to groups that criticize Israel is blatantly unconstitutional."
