For Days of #Holocaust Remembrance, U/S Jacob Helberg shares his grandparent’s story of survival and reminds us all that remembrance is not passive – it requires action - to ensure the facts remain accessible and distortion & denial are confronted. #NeverAgain
Shana Tova U’Metuka to all. A year of renewal, peace, and happiness to all. A year filled with good times with family and friends, a year of love, a year of health. With Love from Santiago. Shalom, Michael, and Huey. #husbands#RoshHashana

The United States is one of the most open economies in the world — but many of our trading partners, including in the EU, still put up barriers to our exports. Even when we run a trade surplus with countries like Luxembourg, barriers make trade less fair and contribute to an overall $200 billion deficit in goods with the EU.
On the 80th anniversary of the liberation of #Auschwitz Birkenau, we observe #Holocaust Remembrance Day to honor the 6 million Jewish men, women and children the Nazis and their collaborators murdered, along with millions of others persecuted and killed. #NeverAgain@AuschwitzMuseum
There is no place in our world for antisemitic attacks like those against Israeli soccer fans in Amsterdam yesterday. The United States stands with the Dutch and Israeli governments in strongly condemning these horrible acts of violence and antisemitism in all its forms.
I Voted from Luxembourg! Today, as millions of people head to the polls, we’re reminded of the power and responsibility that comes with each vote. Every vote is a voice, a hope, and a step toward shaping the future we all envision.
אנו מאוכזבים עמוקות מכך ש-ILGA בחרו להחרים דווקא את אלו הפועלים למען זכויות להט”ב וחברה צודקת יותר.
האגודה פועלת כבר חמישים שנה לסיוע לקהילת הלהט”ב ולשמירה על זכויות אדם באשר הם, כולל סיוע ללהט״בים מהחברה הערבית ולמבקשי מקלט פלסטינים שנרדפים בשל זהותם המינית והמגדרית.
הזהות הלהט"בית הישראלית מכילה בתוכה שירות ותרומה למדינה לצד מאבק על דמות החברה בה אנו חיים. אנו כקהילה לא צריכים לשאת באחריות למדיניות הממשלה, ומצפים מהקהילה הבינלאומית לתמוך בקולות הליברליים ולא להחרימם.
אנו גאים להיות להט”בים וישראלים, ונמשיך להיאבק למען חברה שוויונית ובטוחה יותר.
We are deeply disappointed that ILGA has chosen to boycott those who work for LGBTQ+ rights and strive toward a more just society.
For fifty years, the Aguda - The Association for LGBTQ+ Equality in Israel – has worked to support the LGBTQ+ community and uphold human rights for all, including supporting LGBTQ+ individuals in the Arab community and Palestinian asylum seekers persecuted for their sexual and gender identities.
The Israeli LGBTQ+ identity embraces both service and contribution to the state as citizens, while continuing to fight for the values of democracy and human rights in the society in which we live.
As a community, we should not bear responsibility for government policy, and we expect the international community to support liberal voices rather than boycott them.
We are proud to be LGBTQ+ and Israeli, and we will continue to fight for a more equal and safer society.
Our ability to tackle today's challenges depends on the resources we provide our workforce, the training we provide, and talent we recruit. Congratulations to my colleagues at the Bureau of Diplomatic Technology.
The U.S. is committed to Israel's defense. Following Iran's unprecedented attack against Israel, we have been coordinating a diplomatic response to seek to prevent escalation.
I’m grateful to @USAmbUN, @SecBlinken, and my colleagues across the Administration for the opportunity to help promote America’s interests and values in the UN and broader multilateral system together with our allies and partners. https://t.co/W5KmdezAlF
