Ten from Ted: Peace Demands Pressure on Hamas

Welcome to Ten from Ted. Our hearts are with those who were killed in the shooting in Midtown Manhattan on Monday. May the memories of the four lives taken be a blessing. 1) We are still holding our breath for a breakthrough in negotiations to bring the hostages home. The hostages must be returned. 2) Last week, I was in Washington, D.C., meeting with members of the Vice President’s team, the Department of Education, and key Republican and Democratic leaders on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. 3) I participated in a panel discussion on antisemitism in America, hosted by the Center for American Progress. As the leader of a fiercely nonpartisan organization, it was important to go into ideologically aligned spaces and tell them we all have to take antisemitism seriously.
