We just finished our Days of Awe but I am in awe of these three incredibly brave women who are living their Jewish values publicly in the face of incredible pressure. So proud to support them in this fight. Thanks also to @NCJW@ncjwlouisville@JCRCLouisville
@courierjournal Three Jewish mothers from Louisville who have used IVF in the past or plan to in the future say Kentucky abortion law "has imposed sectarian theology on Jews." https://t.co/SdXxXSFnZs
@JYuter And we also see a lot of variation. My point wasn’t that your examples don’t exist, and yes many Jews have been shamed for the way they practice, but the point here is that in spite of that there has always been variation. Sometimes the rabbis supported it, sometimes they didn’t!
We are lighting the Governor’s Mansion yellow tonight in recognition of Holocaust Remembrance Day and to honor the six million Jewish men, women and children lost. We must reject hate and work together to create a more kind, loving and just world for all our people.
A statement from the family of Alex Pretti, obtained by CNN:
"We are heartbroken but also very angry.
Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman.
The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed.
Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you."
@jsand0113 But it’s a completely baseless accusation. The president shouldn’t be wantonly accusing his political opponents of treason/calling for their death. I don’t think this is a controversial take
Today’s ACIP meeting promoted false claims and misguided information about vaccines. AAP will continue stepping up and working with our local, state and federal partners to make sure every child in every community continues to have access to immunizations.

This is what Yarden Bibas, husband of Shiri, father of Kfir and Ariel, wrote today on his Facebook page, after Netanyahu's decision to renew the war.
I hope all the Jewish organizations that posted online endlessly with images of this family, will honor his words and take action.
“Justice, Justice you shall pursue.” (Deut. 16:20). R. Simcha Bunim teaches that the word justice is repeated to remind us to pursue just means in a just way.
It isn't only about winning, or achieving the goal. How you get there matters.
