Sign the Petition to get Sen Schumer to reject Ellison

NEWS FROM ASSEMBLYMAN DOV HIKIND

HIKIND TO SCHUMER: KEITH ELLISON IS A TOXIC CHOICE FOR DNC CHAIR 

‘SENATOR SCHUMER, PULL THE PLUG ON YOUR SUPPORT FOR ELLISON. HE WILL BE A DISASTER FOR THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.’ 

ONLINE PETITION DRIVE LAUNCHED ON CHANGE.ORG ASKING TO OPPOSE ELLISON

Brooklyn, NY, February 14, 2017…Assemblyman Dov Hikind (D-Brooklyn) launched an online petition addressed to Senator Charles E. Schumer today, calling on him to rescind his support for Congressman Keith Ellison to be the next Chair of the Democratic National Committee.

“Keith Ellison has disqualified himself from becoming the next chair of the DNC,” said Hikind. “Ellison is the most polarizing choice. Not only are his views radical, but they are divisive. Whether his embracing of Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan or his support of the one-sided Goldstone Report, Ellison is clearly not the leader anyone should embrace.”

Ellison has a long history of being a controversial figure. Conveniently after getting elected to Congress in 2006, he then apologized for his involvement in the Nation of Islam. “Why was his apology only issued after getting elected?” asked Hikind. “Ellison’s record clearly reflects he is no friend and is certainly dangerous to the State of Israel. In 2014, he voted against funding for Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system. In 2010, at a fundraiser, he said that American foreign policy is governed by Israeli interests. Is this the future leader of the Democratic Party?”

“Senator Schumer, are there no mainstream candidates to lead us?” asked Hikind. “Instead of bringing Democrats together, Ellison will further divide the Party. Senator Schumer, pull the plug on your support for Ellison. He will be a disaster for the Democratic Party,” said Hikind.

Below is a copy of the petition at change.org:

Senator Schumer: We urge you to withdraw your support for Keith Ellison to be the next Chair of the Democratic National Committee. 

Keith Ellison is a most polarizing choice. Not only are his views radical, but they are divisive. Whether his embracing of Louis Farrakhan or his support of the one-sided Goldstone Report, he is not the right choice.

o  Ellison voted against funding for Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system in 2014.

o  In December 2010, Ellison said that American foreign policy is governed by Israeli interests.

o  His antipathy towards Israel and Jews is crystal clear.

Senator Schumer, pull the plug on your support for Ellison. He will be a disaster for the Democratic Party.

  1. Sorry, but I want Ellison to win DNC Chair. No other candidate could better underline and expose the growing anti-Semitic faction of the leftist Democrat party

  2. Have we run out of antisemites that we need another one to head the democrat party?
    Then again, maybe that’ll awaken the apostate Jews to go republican.

  3. Yes, it would definitely be better if both parties were pro-Israel. Unfortunately, it is too late for that. The Democratic Party has been taken over by the leftists and the Moslems. That is permanent because they depend on the Moslem votes. They know that they can take the Jewish votes for granted, which is what they have been doing. With Ellison at the helm, these stupid left-wing Jews might open their eyes.

  4. Schumer should not be supporting Ellison. There is no good reason to want Ellison to chair the Democratic Party or anything else. We are better if BOTH parties are pro-Israel and not anti-Semitic.

  5. This petition is very short-sighted. The best thing that could happen is for Moslem supremacist Keith Ellison to become the head of the Democratic Party. That would show to everyone just whose side the Democrats are on. The party is already in the hands of the Moslems, but it is hidden. With Ellison at the head, it would be visible to all those liberals. We should urge Shumer to support Ellison!
