The author argues that Congresswoman Elise Stefanik's nomination as UN ambassador is a strong choice due to her unwavering stance against antisemitism and her experience confronting it on American college campuses. They cite instances of antisemitism at Harvard, Stefanik's support for Jewish students, and her criticism of the UN's bias against Israel as evidence of her suitability for the role.
It was a question heard around the world. 'Does calling for the genocide of Jews violate Harvard University’s rules of bullying and harassment? Yes or no?' Congresswoman Elise Stefanik’s relatively simple question at the House Committee on Education & the Workforce Committee hearing on antisemitism was not meant to be a trick question.
Jewish students were meant to grin and bear it, forced to feel unsafe at the learning establishment they had chosen to call home. Across campus, Harvard students illegally set up encampments, cheered thunderously when they replaced the American flag overlooking Harvard with that of Palestinians, screamed about globalizing the intifada, screamed at all hours of the day that 'Palestine will be Arab,' established their own rule of law on campus, and followed us Jews on our way to class.
During my first congressional testimony, Stefanik quietly pulled me aside. 'This is my contact info,' she said,' 'if the Harvard Jewish community is ever in trouble, call me.' Once again, Stefanik was not speaking hypothetically. In the last year, the congresswoman has kept her door open for the American Jewish community and advanced legislation that would alleviate Jewish students' concerns on college campuses.
Who better to take on the antisemites of the U.N. than the woman who has successfully taken on the antisemites of college campuses? Who better to stand up for Israel at the U.N. than the woman who has been doing so for her entire legislative history? Who better to advance the interests of the American Jewish community than the woman who has made more time for us than any other elected official?
urge Republicans and Democrats alike to confirm Stefanik, ensuring that her strong commitment to America and American values is heard loudly in the halls of the U.N. in promotion of President Trump’s America First peace through strength agenda. And to the United Nations, let me say this: a new sheriff is in town. CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM SHABBOS KESTENBAUM
