(29 May 2025) RESTRICTION SUMMARY: ASSOCIATED PRESS Washington DC - 29 May 2025 1. Cutaway of re-opening ceremony 2. SOUNDBITE (English) Chris Wolf, Board Chair, Lillian and Albert Small Capital Jewish Museum: "As the Board president, and on behalf of the Board of Directors, I want to state unequivocally that we will not be deterred from this vital work. Last week's senseless act of violence, violent, antisemitism sought to sow division and fear. But we, the Capital Jewish Museum, represent a celebration of Judaism and a testament to the power of unity, our celebration of Judaism and all it has contributed to society is perhaps the best antidote to antisemitism." ++SEPARATED BY BLACK+ 3. SOUNDBITE (English) Chris Wolf, Board Chair, Lillian and Albert Small Capital Jewish Museum: "Today's reopening is not simply a return to normal. It is an act of resilience. It is a declaration that we will not allow hate to silence our voices or diminish our commitment to building a better future. The memory of Yaron and Sarah will not be a cause for retreat, but rather a powerful inspiration to redouble our efforts. Their dedication to peace will fuel our resolve. Therefore, on behalf of the Board of Directors, I want to announce that we dedicate our future work to the enduring memory of Yaron Lischinsky and Sarah Milgrim. In the days, weeks and months ahead, we will continue to process this tragedy and to heal as a community. We invite you to join us in this journey. Let us honor the memory of Yaron and Sarah by recommitting ourselves to the values they held dear. Values of peace, understanding, and the unwavering belief in our shared humanity." ++SEPARATED BY BLACK+ 4. SOUNDBITE (English) Mayor Muriel Bowser, (D) Washington DC: "I believe strongly, and I have said often it is not up to the Jewish community to say support us. It is up to all of us to denounce antisemitism in all forms." ++SEPARATED BY BLACK+ 5. SOUNDBITE (English) Mayor Muriel Bowser, (D) Washington DC: "While I am saddened by the circumstances, outraged actually, that bring us together today. I am grateful, to look around and see the values of our city represented here and the resiliency that we heard described in getting open. So it sounds like, you know, part of my charge to my team and every difficult circumstance is that we have to get open. We have to get open. We have to get back to normal. We have to allow people to come to work. We have to allow people to grieve. We have to allow people to talk. And we have to live our missions. So thank you for getting open." ++SEPARATED BY BLACK+ 6. SOUNDBITE (English) Sue Stolov, Vice President of American Jewish Committee, Washington: "I was probably not a good target in retrospect. I've got gray hair, and I was alone. Why shoot one person when you can shoot more? I may have walked past the shooter. I don't know, because I was looking at my feet. Six minutes after I passed that spot, two people were dead. It could have been me. By standing up today, we honor the memories of Sarah Milgrim and Yaron Lischinsky, two beautiful souls who believed in bridge building and a better future." ++SEPARATED BY BLACK+ 7.
