Velázquez Offers Passover Greetings

Washington, DC - Today, Rep. Nydia M. Velázquez (D-NY) released the following statement regarding the Passover Holiday:

“To all my friends and neighbors observing Passover, I want to wish a Zeesen Pesach and a joyous celebration with family and friends.

“Through its traditions such as a shared meal, Passover exemplifies the spirit of community and family coming together. Not only is it when we pay tribute to the history of the Jewish people, but it is also a time to care for one another. In that regard, I ask all my friends to think of our most vulnerable neighbors as we honor the sacrifices the Jewish people have made over the centuries.”
