The House Resolution condemns the murders of Israeli Embassy employees Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim, who were killed in Washington, D.C. on May 21, 2025, following an event at the Capital Jewish Museum. Both individuals dedicated their lives to fostering peaceful relations between Israel and its neighboring nations and were specifically targeted due to their support for Israel. The resolution highlights the concerning rise in antisemitism in the United States, particularly following the October 7, 2023, Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, which has been reflected in a significant increase in antisemitic incidents reported by the Anti-Defamation League.

In response to these tragic events, the Louisiana House of Representatives expresses its condemnation not only of the murders of Lischinsky and Milgrim but also of any acts of hatred or violence directed at individuals based on their religion, race, gender, ethnicity, nationality, political affiliation, or other identities. The resolution serves as a formal statement of solidarity against such acts of violence and discrimination.
