In tweet on Wednesday, June 2, Governor Ralph Northam, @GovernorVA wrote:
Our country is seeing a disturbing rise in anti-Semitic attacks. Freedom of religion is a founding pillar of this nation—and it applies to every faith. Hate against anyone because of who they are, what they believe, or how they worship has no home in Virginia, or in America.
Many thanks to Speaker Eileen Filler-Corn, the first Jewish Speaker of the Virginia House of Delegates, for facilitating the Governor’s strong condemnation of antisemitism, in solidarity with the Jewish communities of Virginia.
