U.S. Senator Steve Daines joined 26 of his Senate Republican colleagues in sending a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland and Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona, urging them to restore order to campuses facing anti-Semitic targeting. The Senators emphasized the need for immediate action to protect Jewish students on college campuses.

In the letter, the Senators stated, "You need to take action to restore order and protect Jewish students on our college campuses." They also highlighted President Biden's recent statement condemning anti-Semitism, adding, "If that statement was serious, it must be accompanied by immediate action from your departments."

The Senators called on Attorney General Garland and Secretary Cardona to provide an update on efforts to safeguard Jewish students by a specified deadline. The letter aims to address the concerning situation of campuses being disrupted by anti-Semitic mobs targeting Jewish students.

The call for action comes amidst growing concerns over the safety and well-being of Jewish students on college campuses. The Senators' letter underscores the urgency of the situation and the need for decisive measures to combat anti-Semitic targeting in educational institutions.
