WASHINGTON – Ahead of Prime Minister Netanyahu’s joint meeting of Congress, Education and the Workforce Committee Chairwoman Virginia Foxx (R-NC) spoke on the House Floor about the importance of the Committee’s antisemitism investigation in the face of continued discrimination against the Jewish people in the United States and around the world.
Chairwoman Foxx's remarks:
“I rise today to support Prime Minister Netanyahu in the just cause of eliminating Hamas.
“Soon, the Prime Minister will address the People’s House. As he speaks, we will be reminded of the mounting peril facing America and our allies around the world.
“In the struggle for freedom and democracy against antisemitism and terror, the Committee on Education and the Workforce is proud to do its part.
“We’ve held countless hearings exposing the roots of antisemitism on the home front and will continue to do so. The success of this vital mission will help decide whether America remains safe for the Jewish people.
“As Ronald Reagan once said: ‘Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.’
“His words ring especially true today—not since WWII have the stakes felt so high.”
