Jewish leaders are pressuring Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson to establish an antisemitism<\/a> task force because they believe he\u2019s not doing enough to protect the Jewish community, Fox News Digital has learned.<\/p>\n

“There was a 58% rise in hate crimes<\/a>,” Rebecca Weininger, the senior regional director of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) Midwest, told Fox News Digital, specifically referring to anti-Jewish hate crimes. “So to be clear, that’s not hate incidents. It’s hate crimes, bias-motivated crimes against Jews in the city of Chicago<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

The Chicago Commission on Human Relations in July last year found<\/a> that the Jewish community experienced a 58% increase in hate crimes from 2023-2024. Other groups experienced a decline.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The ADL held a press conference on Monday to demand that Johnson adopt recommendations<\/a> of the Chicago Commission on Human Relations.<\/p>\n

Among those recommendations is a task force to protect Jewish members.<\/p>\n

“Establish the task force your commission recommended, name a leader accountable for this work, set timelines, make progress public,” Chicago Sinai Congregation Rabbi Amanda Greene told ABC 7<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“The taskforce would be very similar to other task forces that the mayor’s office already has in other marginalized communities. It would be populated by the mainstream Jewish community as a way to give information to the mayor about the lived experience of Jews in Chicago right now,” Weininger told Fox News Digital.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Weininger continued, “To help inform other executive policies that he could adopt that would be immediately beneficial to the mainstream Jewish population.”<\/p>\n

Other task forces Chicago established are the Task Force on Missing and Murdered Chicago Women<\/a>, which focuses on policy changes to address violence against women, and the Reparations Task Force<\/a>. Chicago also established a Task Force on Black Immigrants<\/a> that investigates social and economic conditions for Black immigrants in Illinois.<\/p>\n

Johnson’s office declined to comment when reached by Fox News Digital<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
