💨 Abstract

Senator Jacky Rosen has paused the nomination of Admiral Kevin Lunday for Coast Guard commandant due to concerns over the Coast Guard's policy on hate symbols like swastikas and nooses. Rosen is seeking clarity after the Coast Guard's new policy described these symbols as "potentially divisive" rather than outright banning them. This move comes amid rising antisemitism, including a recent mass shooting in Sydney.
