Friend, my work in the Senate is guided by the timeless and powerful Jewish principle of Tikkun Olam – which means to repair and improve the world. So today, I want to take just a moment to share a little bit more about my faith with you.
|
I am the proud granddaughter of Jewish immigrants. From a young age, my family taught me the values of hard work, determination, and persistence – and I learned how Jewish women have been holding our communities together and taking a stand against injustice from the time of the Torah to today.
|
Now, as both the third Jewish woman Senator in U.S. history, and the only former synagogue president in the U.S. Senate, I'm proud to carry these values with me in everything I do to serve Nevada and our country.
|
And in this present moment, we're facing no shortage of issues – many of which directly impact women and the Jewish community. From growing antisemitism to attacks on abortion rights, to attacks on our very democracy, I know it's my duty to respond with clear resolve and a commitment to social justice.
|
If we truly want to repair the world, then it’s up to all of us to come together, roll up our sleeves, and do the repairing.
|
There is so much work ahead of us to make this nation better – for ourselves and for future generations. So if the principle of Tikkun Olam resonates with you – if you're with me in the fight to make real progress for our country – I hope you'll chip in $5 or more today to help me continue this critical work in the Senate.
|
When everybody stands firm and does their part to help better this world, we can move mountains to make positive change happen. Thank you, friend, for joining us.
Jacky
