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 "It in that cause, and condemning the violence and the rhetoric that directly aided and abets it. We have a responsibility to recommit ourselves to the cause for which Sarah and Yaron lived, and for which they literally gave their lives. That is the cause of peace. Reminder of the Scripture that says, blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the Children of God. Tonight we honor two of God's children. Tragically lost too soon" 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.
