It highlights examples attributed to Hasan Piker and Candace Owens and urges action from platforms and leaders. - Jewish individuals and communities — Would reaffirm the United States' commitment to combat antisemitism and to ensure the safety and dignity of Jewish people, citing a 344% rise in antisemitic incidents over 5 years and an 893% rise over 10 years. - Influencers and high-profile media figures — Says people with large online audiences have a responsibility to refrain from promoting or amplifying antisemitic narratives and names Hasan Piker and Candace Owens as illustrative examples. - Social media and streaming platforms — Urges platforms to enforce hate-speech policies and take steps to prevent the spread of antisemitic content. - Public officials and community leaders — Calls on leaders to unequivocally condemn antisemitism and to reject efforts to downplay or excuse such rhetoric as political commentary.
