Friend, 

Over 6,000 Jews and allies have signed our petition to the ADL to condemn Elon Musk’s Nazi salute and our response has been covered in news outlets like Salon, Al Jazeera, and the Forward. Plus, hundreds of supporters have submitted Elon’s salute as an antisemitic incident on the ADL’s own website.

Here’s the latest news: When Elon Musk had the chance to apologize, he doubled down on X, posting a series of Holocaust jokes. But the ADL still hasn’t retracted their defense of Elon Musk’s Nazi salute.

We need to keep up the pressure. Will you sign and share the petition demanding the ADL retract their defense of Elon Musk’s Nazi salute?

This is about more than Elon’s salute. The ADL is cozying up to an administration that is dismantling our democracy to enrich themselves while making all of us, including Jews, less safe.

The ADL hasn’t condemned Trump’s plans to detain and deport immigrants — even though Hitler’s Germany did the same thing to Jews before the Holocaust.¹

The ADL hasn’t condemned Trump’s pardons of the January 6^th protestors — just like Hitler pardoned the Brownshirts, whose job was to intimidate political opponents and help spread Nazi ideology.²

We need our Jewish institutions to fight the actual fascism we are seeing unfolding. 

Add your name to the petition to demand the ADL and its CEO Jonathan Greenblatt retract their defense of Elon Musk’s Nazi salute.

Thank you for taking action,

The Bend the Arc team
