'We must band together': U.S. Progressive Jewish activists prepare for Trump 2.0

As the Trump administration looms on the horizon, Progressive Jewish organizations across the United States are mobilizing with renewed vigor. These groups are not only uniting in opposition to Trump's policies on immigration, healthcare, and minority rights but are also drawing significant inspiration from Israeli-Palestinian peace activists. By fostering inclusive communities and advocating for social justice, they are standing in stark contrast to the divisive and harmful rhetoric that has characterized much of Trump's political discourse.

In anticipation of the Trump administration's second term, various progressive Jewish organizations have begun to rally against policies they deem unfavorable, particularly concerning immigration, women, and minority rights. These groups, aligning themselves with Israeli-Palestinian organizations known for their own contentious stances, appear to be prioritizing divisive and polarizing strategies over constructive dialogue and bipartisan solutions. Critics argue that such opposition serves to further fragment national unity and distracts from the potential benefits of Trump's administration policies.
