25 years ago, the world witnessed unimaginable tragedy during the September 11th terror attacks, but also unimaginable unity in the aftermath.

Today, we remember the 2,977 lives lost, honor the first responders who ran toward danger and recommit to a country united against hate in all its forms.

ADL DC is wrapping up a productive August recess after meeting with six congressional offices across Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina!

We urged support for three bills to strengthen protections for Jewish communities and houses of worship: the Jewish American Security Act (JASA), the Right to Worship Act, and the Pray Safe Act.

Thank you to the members of Congress and their staff for meeting with us, and to our volunteer advocates for lending their voices to this important work!

Fighting hate takes all of us, and partnerships like this one prove it. ADL Washington D.C. Deputy Regional Director Josh Stevens joined the Greensboro Jewish Federation and local civic, education, and public safety leaders, alongside the Guilford County Sheriff's Office for an important discussion on antisemitism and hate in North Carolina. As students return to the classroom, we're reminded how vital it is to keep talking with young people about respect, inclusion, and standing up against bullying and discrimination.

This video taken in Alexandria, VA is deeply concerning, and the victim’s account is consistent with a broader pattern of identity-based exclusion that raises serious questions under non-discrimination and civil rights laws.

Behind every statistic is a person.

Every incident of antisemitism impacts a real individual, a family, a community.

The 2025 Audit of Antisemitic Incidents numbers are alarming, but they are more than numbers. They represent lives forever changed by hate.

We all have a role to play in confronting antisemitism wherever it appears.
