Bondi, Wasserman Schultz vow to protect Jewish community at pro-Israel summit

U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi and U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz spoke about their commitments to the Jewish community and their respective parties’ plans to combat antisemitism and strengthen ties with Israel at an Israeli-American summit attended by thousands on Friday afternoon.

Speaking in front of a packed ballroom at a Hollywood beach resort, Bondi touted the Trump administration’s crackdown on antisemitic and anti-Israel acts, while Wasserman Schultz reassured attendees that the Democratic Party remains largely pro-Israel despite some far-left dissenters.

The Florida-bred elected officials spoke at the Israeli-American Council National Summit, touted as the largest pro-Israel Jewish conference of the year, during a segment about “Inspirational Role Models.” They were followed by a variety of speakers, including Israeli ambassadors, a former Hamas hostage, Olympic gold medalist Caitlyn Jenner and TV personality Siggy Flicker.
