Members of Agudath Israel of America's National Board of Trustees convened in the nation's capital to meet with Congressional leaders to advocate on issues ranging from the security of Israel, Iran sanctions, the alarming rise of global anti-Semitism, funding for homeland security and the advancement of school choice.
Meetings on Capital Hill are scheduled for Wednesday with key members of the Senate and House. Agudath Israel's intense legislative advocacy effort comes at a particularly sensitive moment in Washington.
Agudath Israel Board Chairman, Shlomo Werdiger, and Mission Chairman, Leon Melohn, both explained why Agudath Israel trustees came to Washington from across the country. "Crucial decisions will be made at the highest levels of government that may impact the Jewish people for generations to come. It is imperative that we add our voice and relay our deep concern to government leaders."
