** UPDATE: Hilton Hotels
------------------------------------------------------------

We want to share some important news with you. As you may be aware, we recently called upon the Hilton Hotels Group to reconsider hosting an event featuring individuals with a history of antisemitism and support for the terrorist organization, Hamas. This event was scheduled to take place from October 27th to 29th at the Hilton Hotel in Houston, Texas.


We are happy you that Hilton Hotels has taken the responsible and principled decision to cancel this event. We extend our heartfelt thanks to Hilton for not allowing their venue to be used to further inflame passions against the state of Israel and the Jewish people during this current crisis.


Please write or call Hilton Hotels Galleria Houston to extend our sincere thanks for taking the appropriate action during this sensitive time.

This outcome exemplifies the power of collective voices that stand against hatred and extremism. By making your concerns known and joining us in calling for change, you have played a vital role in influencing this positive resolution. We are truly grateful for your support and dedication to the values of tolerance, respect, and peace.


Hilton Hotels provided us with the following statement regarding the event's cancellation:


Hilton Houston Post Oak by the Galleria serves as a place of public accommodation and does not endorse the positions of third-party groups or organizations. The safety and security of our Team Members and guests is our top priority. Given escalating security concerns in the current environment, the hotel has determined that it cannot serve as the venue for this event because of the potential risks to our Team Members and guests. Our priority is and will remain the safety and security of everyone we welcome at our hotel.


Thank you again for your support, and please continue to stand with us as we work towards promoting the truth about what is happening to our people.
