JFNA co-organized a Washington, D.C. gathering with the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, where nearly 400 participants from 100 Jewish groups urged federal action to bolster security in response to a surge in antisemitic attacks. This mobilization underscores JFNA's commitment to community safety and stands in opposition to hate-fueled and authoritarian violence.

Following a tragic domestic terrorism attack in Washington, DC, the Jewish Federations of North America, alongside 42 other Jewish organizations, issued an urgent statement calling on the US government to increase funding for security measures at Jewish institutions, enhance FBI intelligence capacities, bolster law enforcement support, and hold online platforms accountable for hate incitement. This move is aimed at protecting vulnerable communities and countering growing antisemitic threats.

Jewish Federation leaders met with Congress to urge the maintenance and strengthening of essential programs like Medicaid, SNAP, and SSI, aiming to protect vulnerable populations including low-income families and seniors.

Jewish Federations of North America affirmed support for key legislative priorities in the FY 2023 Omnibus Spending Bill, lobbying for increased funding for the Nonprofit Security Grant Program, Holocaust Survivor Assistance, and the NO HATE Act, while expressing disappointment over the omission of the Afghan Adjustment Act. Their advocacy underscores a commitment to protecting marginalized communities and enhancing community security.
