A shocking new poll by the New York Solidarity Network reveals that nearly half of Jewish voters in New York have felt at risk because of their religious identity, and over a third feel that New York is no longer a safe haven for their people, as reported by the New York Post.
The survey, conducted by the pro-Israel New York Solidarity Network, found that 44% of the 1,200 Jewish voters queried in New York City and other counties have experienced feelings of being unsafe, a sentiment echoed by 67% of identifiable Orthodox Jews.
Additionally, 35% of respondents agreed with the statement: “New York is no longer a safe haven for Jewish life and the Jewish people,” while nearly 40% said the US overall is no longer a safe haven for Jews.
