Re: Request for a Pattern-or-Practice Investigation under 34 U.S.C. § 12601 into the City of New York’s Discriminatory Failure to Protect Jewish Residents from Antisemitic Hate Crime
Dear Mr. McCarthy:
The National Jewish Advocacy Center writes to request that the Civil Rights Division open an investigation, under its pattern-or-practice authority at 34 U.S.C. § 12601, into whether the City of New York and the New York City Police Department are denying Jewish New Yorkers the equal protection of the laws by failing to protect them against a documented and severe wave of antisemitic violence. The predicate is not in dispute, because the City supplies it. By the NYPD’s own count, Jewish New Yorkers were the victims of 330 reported hate crimes in 2025, 57 percent of every hate crime recorded in the city, against a Jewish population that is roughly one New Yorker in ten. That’s more than six a week. This referral asks the Division to answer why the City’s response to that record runs in the opposite direction from the data...

A Jewish prosecutor filed charges based on the law and was removed based on ideology.
A prosecutor’s politics should not decide a case. But neither should a defendant’s politics decide the prosecutor. My latest for @thehill

Dear @nytimes :
On behalf of shareholders we are demanding the records. Not to debate your politics. To see whether the Board did its job while the company’s credibility, reputation, and exposure were put at risk.
You told the public there was nothing to see.
Let's find out.
Dear Park Slope Food Coop,

Your mission statement says diversity and equality. Prove it.
Sell kale. Stop discriminating.
Do it, or we’ll see you in court.
@MarkGoldfeder, of the National Jewish Advocacy Center, told @JNS_org that it is “unbelievable” that the Santa Monica, California police did not immediately classify the incident as a hate crime.
