On behalf of Queens Shmira, I joined the Jewish leadership of Kew Gardens and Richmond Hill, for an informative conversation with Congress Member Gregory Meeks. Due to redistricting,
New York’s 5th Congressional District now includes these Orthodox communities joining Far Rockaway, a community represented by Meeks for many years. The important discussion highlighted Middle East relations and rising antisemitism.
Rep. Meeks, ranking member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, spent over an hour hearing concerns at the Kew Gardens home of Aaron and Malki Cyperstein.
