The CEO of the Jewish Federations of North America, Eric Fingerhut, has opposed an open letter criticizing the Trump administration's approach to antisemitism. Fingerhut argued that the letter did not adequately represent the diverse views within the Jewish community. The dispute highlights ongoing anxiety within the Jewish world over how to respond to Trump's attempted deportations of foreign student activists. The Jewish Federations of North America is standing by Fingerhut's insistence on reflecting a broader range of perspectives.
