Senators Lankford and Rosen co-founded the Senate Bipartisan Task Force to Combat Antisemitism and serve as its co-chairs.
@SenatorLankford: “Since October 7th, Jews in America have faced an unprecedented surge in antisemitism. These are not just numbers, these are real stories
Assessment
The creation of a Senate Bipartisan Task Force to Combat Antisemitism with co-chairs Lankford and Rosen signals a formal legislative response to the post-October 7th rise in antisemitism. Lankford's emphasis on 'real stories' suggests the task force will focus on documentation and testimony. The key question is whether this bipartisan structure can translate into substantive policy actions or remains symbolic.
