The National LGBTQ Task Force condemns the anti-Semitic attack at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh today

WASHINGTON-DC, October 27, 2018: On the anti-Semitic attack at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh today, National LGBTQ Task Force Executive Director Rea Carey said:

“Today, the National LGBTQ Task Force joins others in outrage and heartbreak at the attack on the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh. The attack on Jews, particularly during Sabbath worship, is horrific and unconscionable. Our hearts are with the victims, their families, and community. We condemn this attack. Whether at the hand of a shooter, or from the mouth of Trump and other elected officials, anti-Semitism and defense of white supremacy is unacceptable. We will continue the work to ensure that all people can worship, and that all people can be who they are without fear of violence.”
