New NYC office created to stomp out antisemitism amid ongoing surge in hatred

By Barbara Russo-Lennon Posted on May 13, 2025

Mayor Eric Adams announced on Tuesday the formation of the Mayor’s Office to Combat Antisemitism, a “first-of-its-kind” department tasked with assembling an inter-agency taskforce dedicated to fighting antisemitic acts, including by monitoring court cases and outcomes, and working with the NYC Law Department on legislation and other agencies to “ensure New Yorkers feel protected” against antisemitism and address antisemitic incidents.
