Mayor Bill De Blasio, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Sens. Chuck Schumer and Kirsen Gillibrand were among the elected officials who participated in the demonstration. Schumer said he would introduce legislation to incrase federal funding to protect houses of worship.

Schumer also drew a historical parallel. “When people of good will saw anti-Semitism in Germany in the 20s and 30s, they did not do enough,” he said. “We are standing strong.”
