Deborah Isaac, President, and Herbert Block, Executive Director, of the American Zionist Movement (AZM), issued the following statement:
“AZM applauds today’s announcement of Israel’s admission to the US Visa Waiver Program and commends DHS Secretary Mayorkas for overseeing this initiative. As American Zionists we support bringing citizens of the US and Israel closer together. Admission of Israel to the Visa Waiver Program will facilitate many professional, business, medical, academic, and cultural exchanges while also enhancing personal connections and family ties between Americans and Israelis. AZM is grateful for the efforts of Secretary of State Blinken, former US Ambassador to Israel Thomas Nides and the many Israeli officials who worked to achieve this milestone.”
