David Weprin

My office is aware of a planned "protest" this evening targeting the Young Israel of Jamaica Estates. I have been in contact with the 107th NYPD Precinct who will be deploying officers to keep the community safe.

I am deeply disturbed by this action that comes off the heels of multiple incidents of antisemitic vandalism and intimidation in Queens and throughout New York. We cannot tolerate hate of any kind and I strongly denounce any action targeting a house of worship. Jewish New Yorkers deserve to feel safe at home, at prayer, and in the community.

Happy Easter!
