💨 Abstract

Chiefs of Jewish groups in the U.S. are urging increased federal funding for protecting nonprofits from extremist attacks, following the murder of two Israeli Embassy staffers in D.C. Eric Fingerhut of the Jewish Federations of North America requests a $1 billion budget for the Nonprofit Security Grant Program, emphasizing the need for more security personnel. Leaders also call for stricter enforcement against antisemitic hate crimes and better national law enforcement support.
