May 22, 2025 by AFP

ARLINGTON, VA – AFP President and CEO Emily Seidel issued the following statement in response to the horrific antisemitic terror attack that occurred overnight in Washington, DC:

“We are horrified and saddened by the antisemitic murders of two Israeli Embassy aides in our nation’s capital. Hatred and bigotry are antithetical to everything Americans for Prosperity stands for, and the rampant antisemitism we’ve seen sweep over our country in the last two years is a crisis that cannot be ignored. The pursuit of freedom and opportunity is only possible when our country is characterized by tolerance, respect, and dignity for every American regardless of their background, religion or race. Our hearts are with the victims of this sickening attack and the entire Jewish community. There is no place for this kind of violence and intimidation in our society.”
