(Tuesday, 20th May, 2025) — In a powerful show of unity and commitment, the Combat Antisemitism Movement (CAM) brought together elected officials, law enforcement, faith leaders, students, and community members on Monday for a special Jewish American Heritage Month (JAHM) event in Richmond. Held under the theme “Faith, Freedom, and Legacy: Honoring Virginia’s Jewish Heritage,” the evening celebrated the rich contributions of Virginia’s Jewish community while underscoring a shared commitment to counter the alarming rise in antisemitism.
“Jewish American Heritage Month is that moment where we recognize the incredible contributions Jewish Americans have made to our nation,” Governor Youngkin said. “But we also come together tonight to celebrate tremendous progress against the oldest hatred ever known. And the progress we have made together only encourages us that we have more work left to do. That is our collective commitment this evening. Where there is darkness, we must allow the light in. Every single day we must press forward, because if we stand still, we fall behind.”
