Shabbat Reflections: What Now? A Post-Election Discussion on Antisemitism, Refugees, and Democracy 

During the 2024 election season, few key issues have received as much attention as immigration. The national political discourse has featured everything from misinformation to xenophobic remarks to full-blown conspiracy theories. And yet — as alarming as the rhetoric has been — the outcomes for immigrant communities are far worse. The political conversation about immigration in the U.S. should be about proactive and serious solutions, not about how to shut out people who need safety. 

Join Mark Hetfield, HIAS President, to break down what the 2024 election outcomes mean for policies impacting refugees and asylum seekers, challenging antisemitism, and the health of our democracy.
