  • Loss of Congressman Tom Lantos
    The Jewish Community mourns the loss of Congressman Tom Lantos February 11, 2008 The Jewish Community Relations Council of San Francisco, the Peninsula, Marin, Sonoma, Alameda, and Contra Costa Counties (JCRC) sends its condolences to the family, friends and extraordinary staff of Congressman Tom Lantos, who passed away on February 11. Congressman Lantos represented California’s 12th District in the House of Representatives for three decades. He was Chairman of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs and founding Co- Chairman of the Congressional Human Rights Caucus. Rabbi Doug Kahn, Executive Director of the JCRC issued the following statement: “Congressman Tom Lantos’ career modeled the ideals of public service. He brought great humanity to the halls of Congress, fighting for human rights, and standing against anti-Semitism, bigotry, and Holocaust denial. He was a friend to the Jewish community and a tireless advocate for the State of Israel. Our deepest sympathies go out his daughters, his grandchildren, and his wife Annette who shared his passion for justice and human rights born out of their experience as survivors of the Holocaust. We will miss his eloquent voice and leadership greatly.” Leslie Kane, Executive Director of the Holocaust Center of Northern California issued the following statement: “He had a remarkable life story as the only survivor to serve in the United States Congress. His experience during the Holocaust and as a survivor deeply sensitized him to the ongoing need for human rights. He championed human rights for all people and had an international impact.” For additional information, contact Jessica Trubowitch at (415) 977-7409 The Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC) is the central public affairs and community relations arm of the organized Jewish community.

  • Congress and Israel”
    Council for the National Interest (CNI) Public Hearing on Capitol Hill May 29, 2008 John Mearsheimer’s Comments “Congress and Israel” I would like to thank the Council for the National Interest for organizing this event and inviting me to speak along with such distinguished and brave speakers as Uri Avnery, Menachem Klein, and Edward Peck. I would also like to thank all of you for coming out to hear us speak. It is widely recognized that the US is in serious trouble in the Middle East. Therefore, one would expect Congress to be holding hearings to determine what has gone wrong in that strategically important region, and what might be done to fix the problems we face. In particular, one would expect Congress to examine American policy toward Israel. After all, the US-Israel relationship, to quote from a recent AIPAC press release, “is the keystone of America’s policy in the Middle East.” But such hearings are not taking place and will not happen in the foreseeable future. We all know the reason why, although few of you will say it publicly. The Israel lobby, which is probably the most powerful interest group in Washington today, and certainly the most influential foreign-policy interest group in American history, will not allow either the House or the Senate to critically examine the “special relationship” between Israel and the US which it has worked long and hard to build. Instead, the lobby demands that legislators support Israel generously and unconditionally, and the lobby usually gets what it wants. Of course, anyone who says that the Israel lobby profoundly influences US Middle East policy is likely to be called an anti-Semite or some other terrible name.

    JOINT TESTIMONY OF U.S. REPRESENTATIVE JAMES P. MCGOVERN (MA) U.S. REPRESENTATIVE RANDY HULTGREN (IL) SUBCOMMITTEE ON LEGISLATIVE BRANCH HOUSE APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE MAY 3, 2017 Chairman Yoder and Ranking Member Ryan, as the Co-Chairs of the bipartisan Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission, we appreciate the opportunity to appear before you today to request that language be added to the Fiscal Year 2018 Legislative Branch appropriations bill that would provide $230,000 for salaries and expenses for professional staff for the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission, an official bipartisan body of the House of Representatives. The Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission was established during the 110th Congress pursuant to House Resolution 1451, adopted unanimously on September 24, 2008. The Commission’s authorization has been renewed by every Congress since, most recently in House Resolution 5, the rules of the House for the 115th Congress, approved on January 3, 2017. The Commission has its origins in the bipartisan Congressional Human Rights Caucus (CHRC), founded in 1983 by Congressmen John Edward Porter (R-IL) and Tom Lantos (D-CA). It was after the death of founding CHRC Co-Chairman Lantos, the only Holocaust survivor ever to serve in the United States Congress, and in his honor, that the initiative was taken to institutionalize a unique bipartisan entity in the House of Representatives to educate Members and promote international human rights. The Commission is led by two Co-Chairs, one appointed by the Speaker of the House and the other by the Minority Leader. Any member of the House of Representatives may join the Commission at no cost.
