USA: anti-Semitic bomb threats

All 100 members of the US Senate are asking for President Trump to provide help for the Jewish community, in the light of a number of bomb threats against Jewish community centres . They have signed a letter requesting the White House to act decisively over these threats. The letter stated, ‘We are concerned that the number of incidents is increasing. Failure to address and deter them will place innocent people at risk and threaten the financial viability of Jewish Community Centres (JCCs), many of which are institutions in their communities.’ The letter also calls on the White House to reach out to Jewish centres and institutions with victim assistance, grant opportunities, or other methods of enhancing security measures and improving preparedness.
