White House Office to Combat Antisemitism

Proposal for the Creation of a White House Office to Combat Antisemitism

June 14, 2025
By Kincaid

Jewish Americans are facing harassment, vandalism, intimidation, and violence, and too often the response from government is fragmented, slow, and hard to see. Despite rising antisemitism in the United States and around the world, there is no permanent White House office solely dedicated to this growing threat. While agencies like the State Department and Domestic Policy Council play supporting roles, their efforts are fragmented, reactive, and largely invisible to the public.

We need a permanent, visible, high-level response. That is why I am proposing the creation of a White House Office to Combat Antisemitism, located inside the Executive Office of the President (EOP).

This office would be the center of gravity for federal coordination: setting national priorities, organizing agencies, measuring results, and ensuring the federal government responds with speed, seriousness, and accountability.

Why this office is needed

Antisemitism isn’t only a threat to Jewish people it is a threat to the rule of law, civil rights, and national security. FBI data shows that Jews are the most targeted religious group in U.S. hate crimes year after year. Antisemitism is increasing on college campuses, online platforms, and in extremist movements. No single office currently has the authority, visibility, or permanence to drive comprehensive action. Other issues like drug policy or pandemic preparedness have long had dedicated White House offices. Antisemitism deserves no less.

Right now, responsibility is spread across many agencies and offices the DOJ, DHS, FBI, Department of Education, HHS, State Department, and others. Each has a role, but without a strong coordinating center inside the White House, the response is often:

Fragmented
Inconsistent
Reactive
Too invisible to the public

A White House office makes the issue impossible to ignore and gives the federal government a single place to coordinate strategy, speed, and results.

Mission

The White House Office to Combat Antisemitism would:

Coordinate federal policy and operations across agencies.
Track antisemitic incidents and threats using consistent national metrics.
Support prevention through education, community partnerships, and training.
Strengthen enforcement against violence, threats, and unlawful discrimination.
Publish transparent reporting so the public can see progress and gaps.

What the office would actually do

It would be an operational coordinating office inside the EOP with real responsibilities and measurable outputs.

1) Interagency coordination and rapid response

Stand up an interagency working group with senior designees from DOJ, FBI, DHS, ED, HHS, and State.
Create a rapid response protocol for major incidents involving threats, violence, or coordinated harassment.
Ensure the White House can immediately mobilize resources when communities are targeted.

2) Enforcement and civil rights implementation

Coordinate DOJ and FBI support for investigations where conduct crosses into true threats, criminal harassment, vandalism, or violence.
Work with the Department of Education’s civil rights enforcement when antisemitism becomes discrimination in schools and universities.
Promote consistent guidance and training for federal, state, and local partners.

3) Online hate, threats, and propaganda amplification

The government cannot and should not police constitutionally protected speech. But it can do something important:

Convene platforms and demand faster response channels for credible threats.
Push for transparency metrics: response times, enforcement of existing policies, and reporting consistency.
Coordinate referrals when content crosses into unlawful behavior (threats, harassment, stalking, coordinated intimidation).

This approach is tough and legally durable. It focuses on safety, transparency, and enforcement not censorship.

4) Prevention and public education

Fund and coordinate evidence-based prevention efforts.
Expand training for schools and institutions on recognizing antisemitism and responding appropriately.
Work with communities to strengthen security where needed, consistent with civil liberties.

5) Public reporting and accountability

Publish an annual report on antisemitism trends and federal action.
Maintain a public-facing dashboard of federal initiatives, programs, and progress.

Structure & leadership

Location

The office should be housed in the Executive Office of the President.

Leadership

Led by a Director who reports directly to senior White House leadership.
Supported by a small professional team (policy, data/analytics, interagency coordination, communications, and community engagement).

Advisory council

Create a bipartisan advisory council including:

Jewish community leaders across denominations
Civil rights experts
Law enforcement and security experts
Education leaders
Civil liberties representation to ensure guardrails

Deliverables and timelines

This office should be judged by what it delivers.

Within 90 days: Interagency operating plan, designated agency liaisons, and a national metrics framework.
Within 180 days: Federal guidance package for education institutions and best-practices toolkit for communities.
Within 12 months: First annual report, public dashboard, and measurable performance targets for year two.

Budget and staffing

Estimated annual budget: $8–12 million
Estimated staffing: 20 full-time staff

This is a modest cost for a major national priority and far less than the cost of allowing hate driven threats and violence to grow.

Precedent

The federal government has created high-level White House coordinating offices before when the stakes required it. Offices designed to align agencies, enforce strategy, and report results. Antisemitism and hate driven violence deserve the same seriousness.

Public message

“Antisemitism is not just a threat to Jews. It is a threat to national security. A threat to the very principles that are the foundation to America. When I see what is happening to Jews, it breaks my heart. This should not be happening anywhere in the world. But to see it happening in America should make every American bow their heads in shame. “ - Kincaid

The office will be the center and the heart of the nation’s fight against antisemitism. Everything will be under the control of, or coordinated with, this office.

How this office would be created

There are two practical ways to establish this office:

By statute (Congressional law): More permanent; can define authorities and reporting requirements.
By executive action: Faster to launch, but easier for a future administration to reverse.

I support making it permanent, so the federal government’s commitment does not disappear with the next news cycle or election.

In January 2025, the Justice Department announced the formation of a multi-agency Task Force to Combat Antisemitism. That effort is meaningful, but it is not the same as a permanent, institutional office. Because it is not created by statute, it can be modified or discontinued through administrative action. A White House Office housed in the Executive Office of the President would provide durable coordination, standardized metrics, and transparent reporting that does not disappear when leadership changes.

I have some suggestions on who might lead this office. Shai Albrecht, Noa Tishby, and Elizabeth Savetsky. My lead choice is Shai Albrecht.

No disrespect to the current U.S. Special Envoy to Combat Antisemitism or to the White House Jewish Liaison, but the reality is, most Americans outside the Jewish community have never heard of you. Many don’t even know your offices exist. That is not a reflection on you personally, but a reflection of how invisible the fight against antisemitism has become in the halls of power.

More is needed. And it is needed now. We need a much more visible office, with a much more visible leader. Someone who can reach outside of the Jewish community. Someone who can reach every American.

Kincaid is a moderate, common-sense Democrat, a candidate for Congress in Washington’s 1st Congressional District, running to deliver practical solutions on public safety, healthcare, homelessness, and accountable government.

Kincaid's statement on Olympus Spa " Olympus Spa Is the Hill I'm Willing to Die On "

Let’s save Olympus Spa. I was truly shocked when I learned about the injustice that happened to Olympus Spa in Lynnwood. Honestly. I kept thinking WTF over and over again. Why? How? How is something like this even possible? At first, I thought this insanity would never hold up in court. I thought, “No way the people of Washington voted for this.” And I was right they didn’t . The voters didn’t decide this. The state legislature did. They passed a law saying that a biological man yes, even a man with male genitalia could put on a wig and a dress, and the state would declare him legally a woman . They would give him a new driver’s license with an “F” on it. And then they’d turn to places like Olympus Spa , a women only business where patrons are nude, and say: “You have to let him in. Or we’ll sue you.” It didn’t matter that female customers were uncomfortable being naked around men. It didn’t matter that this violated the Christian beliefs of a Korean-owned ...

Kincaid’s statement on Microsoft job cuts

A few words on the recent Microsoft job cuts. Back in the old days, as they say, if you spoke out against a major employer, people would warn you,“Be careful this is a company town.” Well, Washington today is essentially a company state. Taking on Microsoft head on would be political suicide. Let me be clear. I am not attacking Microsoft, and I am not trying to start a war with them. But I do think it’s worth re-examining some of their decisions. For example, Microsoft has spent roughly $170 billion on stock buybacks over the past 10 years. That’s not unusual for large corporations, but instead of artificially inflating its own share price, some of that money could have been used for real investments investments in people, in innovation, in the communities that make Microsoft possible. We should also re-examine the H-1B visa program. Companies claim America doesn’t have enough skilled workers to fill key roles. Others say we do, but that companies prefer to hire from oversea...

Nurse Assault Prevention and Accountability Act of 2027

Nurse Assault Prevention and Accountability Act of 2027 Protecting the People Who Take Care of Us Overview Every day across America, nurses, certified nursing assistants (CNAs), and frontline healthcare workers walk into hospitals, clinics, and longterm care facilities not knowing if they’ll be respected or if they’ll be threatened, spat on, shoved, or worse. They’re not asking for praise. They’re asking for protection. According to recent data nearly three out of four workplace violence incidents in the private sector happen in healthcare. Seventy-five percent. Nurses are punched. CNAs are attacked. ER staff are threatened not just during pandemics, but during regular shifts, in everyday America. And yet in many states if someone assaults a nurse, if they throw a punch, slap, or spit on them. There may be no serious consequences at all. In too many places it’s treated like a minor misdemeanor. If it’s even prosecuted at all. That must change. P...

Kincaid’s Strategy to End Homelessness

For decades, we’ve seen government agencies from HUD to city and county programs. Spend billions of dollars to fight homelessness. But despite the money and the promises, the problem keeps getting worse. Why? Because most of our current programs are built on theories that don’t work in reality. In theory, if you have a thousand homeless people, you build a thousand housing units, problem solved. In reality it doesn’t work that way. Some people are struggling with addiction. Others have untreated mental illness. And others simply can’t afford rent in an overpriced market. You cannot put all three groups under one roof and expect stability or safety. Look at programs like Plymouth Housing. Their hearts may be in the right place, but the results tell the truth. Police and fire are called there constantly. For overdoses, assaults, and mental health crises. It’s not compassion to ignore that. It’s negligence. We need a new approach. One that separates by cause, not by convenience. For those...

KINCAID Exploratory Committee

Announcing Exploratory Committee for Washington’s 1st Congressional District Today, I am announcing the formation of an exploratory committee to run for Congress in Washington’s 1st District. I am a Democrat and if I run, I will likely be challenging fellow Democrat, Representative Suzan DelBene, who has held this seat for over 12 years. The state of Washington ranks as one of the worst states to retire in. One major reason is affordability. But that won’t be a problem for Representative DelBene because like so many politicians, her net worth has skyrocketed during her time in office. In fact, according to Quiver Quantitative, it has more than doubled from $60 million to $126.34 million. That may sound shocking, but it’s not unusual. More than half of all members of Congress are millionaires. And among the top 10 wealthiest members, Suzan DelBene is number eight. Let me be clear: I’m not attacking people for being rich. I’d love to be rich. I have no doubt that being rich is fant...

Proposal: No Federal Income Tax for Persons Earning $61,000 or Less

No Federal Income Tax and Tax Filing for People Earning 61,000 or Less Summary This proposal would eliminate federal individual income tax liability for people earning $61,000 or less in total wage income, simplifying the tax system for tens of millions of working Americans while having minimal impact on federal revenue. So those people making about 29.33 an hour and under. Would pay zero federal income tax . And would not be required to file a tax return every year. Payroll taxes would still be taken out of paychecks . For example Social Security and Medicare . And that's it no federal tax taken out of paychecks. Rationale Based on IRS data from the past decade (2013–2022), households earning $61,000 or less make up approximately 50–60% of all U.S. tax filers. This group contributes only 2–3% of all federal individual income tax revenue, equal to $53–$79 billion per year, depending on the year. That amount is a rounding error in the Department of Defense. ...

Kincaid’s Statement on Antisemitic Attack Against Jewish Student in Seattle

This is a deeply disturbing case of antisemitism targeting a 15 year old Jewish girl at her high school in Seattle. This is racism. This is hate. This is evil. What the other students did to her is unconscionable and so is the failure of the school system to protect her. I call upon the Mayor of Seattle, the Governor of Washington, the State Attorney General, and all city, state, and federal representatives to condemn this act without hesitation. I urge them to fully investigate the students and staff involved, and to offer their unwavering support to the victim and her family. The people of Seattle and the entire state of Washington should be horrified that this happened. We should be embarrassed. We should be ashamed. There is an infection of evil spreading in our country, and this case is one of the most chilling symptoms. I fear what the students who committed this act may be capable of as adults if this hatred is left unchecked. Case Outline : Antisemitism at Nathan H...

Statement from Kincaid: To the people of Bellevue’s Eastgate neighborhood regarding the homeless shelters

Before we are able to solve the problem. It is important to know how the problem was created . Did the people of Bellevue want , ask for or vote for a homeless shelters in Eastgate ? So how did this happen. A Cabal , the ruling class. A group of people that believe they are superior to everyone else. King County , Bellevue, Kirkland and Redmond. Got together and made an agreement to do this. Important to know that this agreement was not legally binding . Bellevue was not legally required to do this. They made agreement for Bellevue ,Kirkland and Redmond to have homeless facilities that would be run by Plymouth Housing. It did not matter what the people said. The facilities were going to be built. The public hearings , the Bellevue City Council vote. It was all just for show. They was very strong opposition to the Eastgate location. To the people of the Eastgate community and the rest of Bellevue. I see you, and I hear your concerns. If elected ...

Kincaid Gun Control Policy

I feel there has been a big whole in the debate on gun control policy. I feel that the focus has been on laws that will do nothing. To protect people from the daily street crime that is happening. They has never been a focus on stolen handguns. And on preventing guns from getting stolen. As you know. Home invasions and car break ins happen every day. And many times this results in guns being stolen. A criminal should not be able to simply break a glass window. And then walk away with a bag full of guns. In a matter of minutes. There is no federal law requiring the secured storage of guns. A child safety lock comes with a gun. But there is no real requirement that you use it. And that doesn’t prevent a gun from being stolen. Like a lock box or safe would. A few states have laws requiring the safe storage of guns. But most do not. So right now. Preventing someone from just leaving their gun. In the glove box of their car. And if that gun is ...
