There is no place for antisemitism in my hometown of Woodhaven or anywhere in New York. Last night, Nazi hate symbols were spray painted along the Orange Trail in Forest Park. This vile act of antisemitism seeks to intimidate our Jewish community and spread hate and fear. Our community will not tolerate it.
I spoke directly with the 102 Precinct and I commend their swift coordination with the NYPD Hate Crimes Task Force to investigate and pursue those responsible. I also commend the Parks Department for acting quickly to remove these hateful markings and restore the space for my constituents who use this trail every day.
We will not allow hatred to take root in our community. We will confront antisemitism with moral clarity, hold those responsible fully accountable, and stand united against every form of hate. Love will always win over hate in New York.
