Conference of Presidents Welcomes Decision to Drop Case Against Rosen and Weissman

New York, May 1, 2009 … Alan Solow, Chairman, and Malcolm Hoenlein, Executive Vice Chair of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations said they welcomed the decision by the government to drop the case against two former employees of AIPAC, Steve Rosen and Keith Weissman. “We are pleased that this nightmare has ended for Mr. Rosen and Mr. Weissman and their families. We hope this will put an end to the spurious charges that have been made and the exploitation by some who sought to use this to advance baseless accusations and charges against those who support Israel,” said Solow and Hoenlein.
