Rosen Addresses Congressional Briefing on Holocaust Education, Discusses Bipartisan Legislative Efforts to Combat Anti-Semitism

Statement

Today, U.S. Senator Jacky Rosen (D-NV) addressed Members of Congress, advocates, educators, and Holocaust survivors during a Congressional briefing on the need for greater investment in Holocaust education. During her remarks, Senator Rosen discussed legislative actions she has taken to combat anti-Semitism, including introducing the Never Again Education Act, bipartisan legislation that would establish a dedicated federal fund to provide teachers with resources and training necessary to teach our students the important lessons of the Holocaust.

"It's our responsibility to our neighbors, friends, community, and children to work together and prevent anti-Semitism before it starts because through education we can enlighten and empower our communities," said Senator Rosen. "I'm proud to introduce the bipartisan Never Again Education Act, which would establish a federal fund to finance grants to help teachers develop and improve Holocaust education programs across our country. We must continue working across the aisle to combat anti-Semitism and hate in all its forms."
