[[link removed]]BREAKING: NEVER AGAIN EDUCATION ACT SIGNED INTO LAW

WJC Friend,

We wanted to report to you as soon as possible about an important milestone in
the fight against antisemitic hate; a monumental achievement your loyalty helped
to bring about: H.R. 943, The Never Again Education Act, has been signed into law after passing
the U.S. House of Representatives with bipartisan support and passing the Senate
by unanimous consent. This critical legislation will provide federal funding to
expand Holocaust education in the United States.

The World Jewish Congress – with your dedicated support – has long advocated for
the significance of increased Holocaust education in American schools and for
the passage of this bill.

We are grateful for your continued partnership which resulted in this critical
victory in our ongoing fight against growing intolerance and hatred.

The Never Again Education Act helps to ensure that awareness of the lessons of
the Holocaust remains ingrained in the collective American consciousness. This
legislation is a tremendous step forward toward prioritizing and standardizing
Holocaust education, and we hope that it serves as a model to world leaders
around the globe.

The World Jewish Congress is working with many European and other countries to
ensure that Holocaust education becomes a permanent part of school curriculums.
WJC President Ambassador Ronald S. Lauder has initiated the Auschwitz Legacy
Project to make available to schools around the world an educational package in
different languages that will enable teachers to devote a session each year on
January 27, the date of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, to teach their
students what happened in the largest of the Nazi death camps and about the
importance of standing up against antisemitism. In order to make Holocaust
education a central element of the study of modern history in the 21st century,
the World Jewish Congress joined with UNESCO to create the multi-lingual
Holocaust education online platform, aboutholocaust.org [[link removed]] , geared at providing students, young adults, and others with essential
information about the history of the Holocaust and its legacy.

Your gift to World Jewish Congress, American Section, supports and strengthens
the WJC’s vital efforts to confront Holocaust denial, invest in education, and
safeguard the Jewish people everywhere from antisemitic rhetoric, intimidation
and violence.

Thank you for all you have done, and continue to do, on behalf of our Jewish
communities.

WJC
