The U.S. Department of Justice is convening a “Summit on Combating
Anti-Semitism” that will bring together Jewish community figures with
“administration leadership.”
The summit’s agenda, to take place July 15, includes sessions on
“combating anti-Semitism
while respecting the First Amendment;”
“anti-Semitism on campus;” and “prosecuting hate crimes;” and will be
rounded out by a “fireside chat” with “administration leadership” on the
topic.
Participants are not listed on the agenda, but top Trump
administration officials who deal with anti-Semitism include Elan Carr,
the State Department envoy combating anti-Semitism, and Kenneth Marcus,
the top civil rights official at the Education Department whose last job
was president of the Louis D. Brandeis Center for Human Rights Under
Law, which tracks anti-Israel activity and anti-Semitism on campuses.
