Friend,
Last week was hard. We saw Trump spew fascist rhetoric at his
inauguration, Elon Musk do a Nazi salute (which the ADL defended),
executive orders that violently target our immigrant and trans family,
and more.
But here’s what gives us hope: our Jewish resistance to
Trump is growing. Scroll down to see our movement of
Jews and allies in action together. It’s incredible.
|
We started inauguration weekend braving
the cold with thousands of our friends in D.C. for the People’s March.
As leaders with the Jews for Democracy contingent, we sent a clear
message that our movement of Jews and allies will never stop fighting
for our shared future. |
At
Trump’s inauguration, where he outlined policies akin to how Jewish
immigrants and trans people were among the first targeted in 1930s
Germany, Elon Musk celebrated with back-to-back Nazi salutes — and
then the ADL defended him.
So we jumped into action with a petition
calling on the ADL to hold Musk accountable…
|
…a video explaining why the ADL is
endangering Jews — not protecting us — by defending Musk and staying
silent on Trump’s policies…
|
…and an explainer video about
how people like Trump and Musk use antisemitism and accusations of
antisemitism in an attempt to undermine our movements for
justice.1,2,3 |
With
your support we had an amazing impact: thousands of Jews and allies
signed the petition, answered the call to submit Musk’s antisemitism
directly to
the ADL’s website, and watched the videos.
|
Trump’s
cruel, dangerous policies are already harming our immigrant family,
our trans family, and so many others.
That’s
why we joined over 85 other Jewish organizations in opposition to the
Administration’s plans to launch mass deportations, build massive
detention camps, and conduct sweeping raids.4, 5, 6

Like our ancestors before us, we’ll never stop resisting fascism
and fighting for a better future. Like our ancestors before us, we
know that winning will take all of us.
Help our movement continue this urgent work. Your
gift today — of any amount — will make a difference and be put to use
immediately in our Jewish fight to resist
Trump.
