Millions in security funding for Jewish schools, synagogues following Monsey attack

July 14, 2020

In the wake of the fatal Hanukkah attack near a Monsey synagogue, more than $2.5 million in federal funding has been earmarked for strengthening security at nearly two dozen Jewish schools, synagogues and community centers in Rockland and Westchester counties.

The money was secured by U.S. Rep. Nita Lowey, D-Harrison, through the Department of Homeland Security's FEMA grants to prepare for and respond to terrorist attacks.
