The father of a victim of an antisemitic hate crime, Barry Borgen, yesterday during a House Judiciary Committee hearing in New York City:
"When my son got beaten up by these six individuals, we heard from many politicians. Mayor Adams was a candidate. Gov. Hochul. I must take notice of Mr. Nadler. You’re a Jewish New Yorker. I called your office numerous times; I called Mr. [Chuck] Schumer’s office, another Jewish New Yorker, numerous times. No one called us back. “Neither one of you came out with a statement on my son’s incident. You’re a Jewish New Yorker. You have Jewish roots here. Behavior like this enables DA Alvin Bragg to just do whatever he wants to do. If you guys were to come out with a statement from Washington saying… ‘we condemn [antisemitism], we condemn this act,’ maybe Mr. Bragg would have taken this case a little bit more seriously. And I call you out on it. Most of my friends and I are so disheartened with you and Mr Schumer, you don't understand."
