Mamdani introduces new NY Jewish safety measures
New York City Mayor Zahran Mamdani confirmed that a series of measures have been implemented to combat anti-Semitism following a 182% increase in incidents between January 2025 and January 2026. The city has seen a rise in attacks against Jews, particularly in the area with the largest Jewish community in the United States. The actions include doubling funding allocated for hate crime prevention and investing one million dollars to enhance synagogue security and support educational awareness in schools about Jewish contributions to the city's history. However, the Anti-Defamation League criticized these measures, arguing that they do not include an official definition of anti-Semitism and considered them inadequate.
