Celebrating Jewish American Heritage Month

May is Jewish American Heritage Month, an opportunity to highlight and celebrate the history, culture, and contributions of Jewish Americans throughout history.

"Jewish people have enriched America and helped build our collective future for centuries," U.S. Congresswoman Joyce Beatty (OH-03) said. "Inspired by the Torah and Rabbinical traditions, Jews have been at the forefront of progressive initiatives for organized labor, civil rights, voting rights, immigration reform, and more. Today and every day, I applaud the work of Jewish Americans across all aspects of our society and vow to continue the fight against anti-Semitism at home and abroad."
