WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congresswoman Summer Lee (PA-12), Congressman Jamaal Bowman, Ed.D. (NY-16), and a coalition of 18 other Members of Congress sent a letter today to Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and Secretary of State Antony Blinken, raising concerns about Israel's treatment of Palestinian-Americans under the Visa Waiver Program (VWP).

I voted for this resolution on the House floor because I strongly condemn antisemitism. Though the resolution falls short of endorsing the IHRA definition, its mention invites a reminder that this definition conflates criticism of the state of Israel with antisemitism. This is both unacceptable in a country that values the right to free speech and deeply harmful to communities fighting for Palestinian human rights. The right to criticize the actions of any foreign state should be protected.
