Executive Briefing

Detailed Factual Report

A regional ADL office said it had “serious concerns” about Daniel Biss, in Illinois.

A local chapter of the Anti-Defamation League issued a blistering critique of a progressive Jewish congressman-elect as soon as his race was called on Election Night, prompting a reproach from the politician, Daniel Biss.

“It saddens me to watch the ADL, once a preeminent civil rights organization, devolve into an entity that traffics in fear, intimidation and extremism,” Biss, who easily prevailed in the state’s 9th District in suburban Chicago, told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency in a statement Wednesday. “This kind of rhetoric does nothing to keep the Jewish people safe — in fact, it undermines that very cause.”

Biss, the grandson of Holocaust survivors who held Israeli citizenship when he was younger, was responding to ADL Midwest’s statement late Tuesday that the organization “has serious concerns” about his “approach to antisemitism.”
