Agudath Israel Advocacy Continues to Ease Way for Arba Minim
As in past years, Agudath Israel of America's Washington Office has worked closely with agencies of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security to help avoid potential problems for travelers carrying arba minim.
Both the Transportation Security Administration (TSA) and U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) have notified their respective field personnel about the upcoming Sukkos holiday and the increased level of travel by persons of the Jewish faith, many of whom will be carrying arba minim. The agencies have also made this information available to the public - the TSA notice here and the CBP notice here.

Save STC
The campaign to save STC received extensive media coverage recently. News stories done by NBC 5, WGN 5, the Sun-Times, and Center Square and others; covered the recent press conference hosted by our coalition and highlighted the plight of students that rely on this program. Public awareness of the impending sunset and the adverse impact it would have on nearly 10,000 children across the state is critical to the success of the campaign.
"Save My Scholarship" lawn signs are being distributed to households through both Agudah and local schools throughout the community.
We need your help! Reach out to your legislators here, and ask them to remove the sunset.
