NYPD Commissioner Jessica Tisch has declared a firm stance against antisemitism amid rising incidents in New York City, especially following the escalation of conflict after the October 7 Hamas attack. Speaking at the Anti-Defamation League's "Never Is Now Summit", Tisch criticized local protests that have harbored anti-Jewish sentiments and symbolisms. She promised that the NYPD's hate crimes task force will actively combat these threats with the support of a diverse New York community, emphasizing the importance of safety and freedom for all residents to live, work, and worship without fear.
We at the NYPD have the backing of everyday New Yorkers who know that the most diverse city on the planet must be and will be a place where everyone can live and work and worship free from fear.
As your police commissioner, I promise that the NYPD will continue to combat antisemitism no matter where the threats originate, and our hate crimes task force will remain on the front lines of this fight.
