The annual presidential conference call to rabbis in advance of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur will be a diminished event this year, if it happens at all.
Four Jewish groups, representing 4000 rabbis, issued the following message: “We have concluded that President Trump’s statements during and after the tragic events in Charlottesville are so lacking in moral leadership and empathy for the victims of racial and religious hatred that we cannot organize such a call this year.”
