The move coincides with a sharp rise in antisemitic hate crimes—up 183% in January 2026—prompting backlash over perceived normalization of anti-Israel rhetoric, weakened antisemitism protections, and appointments of officials with controversial past statements.
Critics argue the administration’s policies and staffing choices undermine Jewish community safety and divert city resources from core public health duties.
