WASHINGTON – The following statement was attributed to the Committee on Education and the Workforce Chairwoman Virginia Foxx (R-NC) regarding Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to a joint meeting of the U.S. Congress:
“Prime Minister Netanyahu laid out the clearest case yet as to why it’s vital to root out antisemitism here in America: not only is it a matter of right versus wrong, but it also emboldens our adversaries. That’s why the Committee’s investigation into antisemitism will and must continue.
“To those who participated in illegal encampments, harassed Jewish peers, and chanted ‘from the river to the sea’ on college campuses: stop being ‘Iran’s useful idiots.’ Stand with our ally Israel and stand for the democratic values that make our two nations great.”
