JCPA and 83+ Civil Rights Groups Urge Congress to Reject Funding for Bigoted “Invasion” Conspiracy

JCPA joined more than 83 civil and human rights organizations, labor unions, and community-based groups urging Congress to reject legislation and not to fund executive actions that rely on the false and bigoted “invasion” conspiracy theory. 

Amy Spitalnick, CEO of the Jewish Council for Public Affairs said: “These dangerous and deadly ‘invasion’ and ‘replacement’ conspiracy theories are being used by this administration to advance dehumanizing policies and an unprecedented expansion of presidential power — directly threatening our communities and our democracy. We know these conspiracy theories have already fueled a cycle of extremist violence targeting Jews, Latinos, the Black community, and others, including the deadliest attack on the Jewish community in U.S. history at Tree of Life in Pittsburgh. Any official who claims to care about our safety and our democracy has a fundamental obligation to reject this extremism.”
