Rep. Jan Schakowsky Marks the 67th Anniversary of Israel’s Independence, Yom Ha’atzmaut


WASHINGTON, DC –(ENEWSPF)—April 23, 2015.

“I am very proud to join in celebrating the 67th anniversary of Israel’s Independence, Yom Ha’atzmaut. Today we recognize those who waged the fight for Independence nearly seven decades ago and those who are working to keep Israel safe now and in the future.

The United States, the strongest and oldest ally of Israel, stands in strong solidarity with Israel and remains steadfast in our commitment to ensure its continued existence as a democratic, Jewish state. 

Since its creation, Israel has demonstrated its ability to meet many challenges and threats and to build a vibrant nation.  As we face the threat of anti-Semitism around the globe, the importance of Israel remains.  We must reaffirm our resolve to make sure that Israel not only endures, but thrives and that the people of Israel can live in peace and security.”
