Smucker Joins Community Event Honoring Those Lost in Attacks on October 7, 2023

York, PA - Rep. Lloyd Smucker (PA-11) joined community members at an event organized by the York Jewish Community Center, marking the one-year anniversary of Hamas' terrorist attacks on Israel that left over 1,200 individuals dead and hundreds taken hostage. Following the event, Rep. Smucker issued the following statement:

"I appreciated the opportunity to join friends and neighbors from across our community in coming together to honor those lost one year ago. We offer prayers of comfort for those mourning the loss of a loved one and for those waiting for the return of loved ones from captivity. Americans are among the hostages, and we pray for their swift return to their families.

"We must continue to support our great ally, Israel. In Congress, my commitment to our nation's ally will not waver. I stand with Israel. We must also stand united against the rampant growth of antisemitism and support our Jewish friends and neighbors."
