Speaker Johnson And Leader Jeffries Host House Memorial Vigil For Sarah Milgrim And Yaron Lischinsky

WASHINGTON, DC - JUNE 10: Speaker of the House Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) speaks "From those of Hamas sympathizers here on our own shores. They proclaim that violence is righteous, that rape is justice, and that murder is liberation. They have created a culture of lies that puts a bounty on the heads of the peace loving Jewish Americans. And the insidious spread of this violent ideology has emboldened the evil worldview of people. Like the one that took the lives of Sarah and Yaron. Where is the outrage for these two young victims? There have been no national protests for them, or the many victims of anti-Semitic violence all around this country. No calls in the streets to say their names. No chance for justice or peace. We cannot let these depraved, anti-Semitic terrorists silence us" as House Minority Leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) and members of Congress listen during a memorial vigil hosted by Johnson and House Minority Leader Rep. Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) outside of the U.S. Capitol on June 10, 2025 in Washington, DC. The vigil was held for two Israeli embassy staff members, Yaron Lischinsky, 30, and Sarah Lynn Milgrim, 26, who were shot and killed as they left the Lillian and Albert Small Capital Jewish Museum on May 21.
