WARRENSVILLE HEIGHTS, OH – Congresswoman Marcia L. Fudge (OH-11) released the following statement in recognition of Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur 2016:

“I join the vibrant Jewish community of Ohio’s Eleventh Congressional District in celebrating Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, and, Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement.  The Days of Awe are a sacred occasion for reconciliation and renewal.  During this time, communities come together and reaffirm values of Judaism: to be kind, compassionate, loving, and understanding.

“My best wishes to all in Northeast Ohio and around the world observing these holy days. I pray you and your family have a happy, healthy, and sweet year in 5777.  May the year ahead be one of peace, promise, and security for all.”

“May you be inscribed and sealed for a good year. L’Shana Tova. ”
