Recent pro-Palestinian demonstrations have led to concerns about the safety of Jewish people, especially on college campuses where some Jewish students say they no longer feel safe.

Back in October 2023, just days after Hamas terrorists invaded Israel, killing more than a thousand Israelis, kidnapping more than 200, and holding them as hostages, city council approved a resolution to stand with Israel.Since that resolution, local pro-Palestinians have been coming to city council meetings to speak on behalf of thousands of Palestinians who have been killed by Israeli forces.
