A Vote for Klal Yisroel: Why June’s Election Matters for Boro Park

There are moments when a community must stop and ask:  Whose voice represents us?

This June, Boro Park faces such a moment.

For decades, our neighborhood has been a center of Jewish life and Torah values. But today, much of Boro Park lies within one of the most liberal congressional districts in the country, a district that voted even further left in the last mayoral election than the district of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. That reality threatens to silence our community’s voice in Washington.

Congressman Dan Goldman has proven himself to be a proud Jew and a strong defender of heimishe Yidden at a time when standing by our people has never been harder. When the October 7^th attacks shocked the world, when Jewish students across America were harassed, and when calls for justice for the Jewish people were ignored, Goldman was there.

When our family members were stuck aboard due to the war, Congressman Goldman helped many families return safely from Israel and responded to the needs of thousands in our community. His commitment to his Boro Park constituents goes beyond party lines.

Dan Goldman now faces a challenge from a candidate backed by the progressive anti-Israel movement. In his own words, his opponent has called for defunding Iron Dome, the system that protects our brothers and sisters in Israel from rocket attacks.

Let us speak plainly: this election has real consequences for our community.

Silence in the face of danger is complicity. This June, we must show up to the polls in strong numbers and make our voice heard.

A vote for Dan Goldman is a vote to protect our families, our community and our future.
