Holidays are often a time of reflecting, sharing gratitude, making memories and coming together as a family. The spirit of giving that is central to the holidays can inspire conversations about tzedakah (charity), tikkun olam (repairing the world), and gemilut chasadim (acts of loving kindness).

Take action now! On December 11, the Ohio Senate passed SB 297, a bill to codify the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism. The Ohio House will be voting on the bill in the final days of their legislative session. This is the most widely adopted, mainstream definition to clearly label what constitutes anti-Jewish language while fully protecting the first amendment. This is an essential tool towards fighting against anti-Jewish hatred. It is crucial that this bill passes. https://lnkd.in/e_ytTfr7
