Tragically, attacks on our nation’s houses of worship have only become more common over the past decade. It is up to all of us to deny this hate safe harbor. No one should fear for their life when they bow their head in prayer or go about their lives in America.”

"The attack was the deadliest act of antisemitism in our nation’s history," Biden stated in part."It was an assault on members of the Tree of Life, New Light and Dor Hadash congregations, the American Jewish community, and our country. And it was a reminder that hate never goes away, it only hides; and if we give hate oxygen, it can consume."

"We must always stand up and speak out against antisemitism with clarity and conviction, and rally against the forces of hate in all its forms, because silence is complicity,” Biden continued. He also stated that his administration would be “laying out our country’s first-ever comprehensive strategy to address domestic terrorism, signing legislation aimed at strengthening our efforts to counter unlawful acts of hate.

Kamala Harris, for her part, called the synagogue shooting an “unspeakable act fueled by antisemitic hate.”
