ATLANTA — Lt. Gov. Burt Jones and the Georgia Senate denounced the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel and passed Senate Resolution 4EX in support of the state of Israel and the Jewish people Wednesday.
“Today and every day, the Georgia Senate stands with the people of Israel and our nation’s Jewish Community,” Jones said in a news release. “The horrific events of Oct. 7 have forever changed the lives of our friends in the Jewish community. I condemn Hamas’s terrorist attack and the wave of anti-Semitic acts and speech we have seen in our country since then. This is unacceptable, and this hatred and hostile way of thinking will not be tolerated, especially in our universities and places of learning. I unequivocally stand with Israel, our Jewish Community and look forward to working with the Senate and House to get House Bill 30 passed and signed into law.”
