WASHINGTON – Interfaith Alliance, a national leader in defending civil rights and multi-faith democracy, is deeply concerned by the 2024 Hate Crimes Statistics released by the FBI, which mark the second highest number of annual hate crimes since the FBI first began reporting the data over thirty years ago. The report shows alarming levels of hate crimes directed against Black Americans, LGBTQ+ Americans and religious minorities, particularly Muslim, Jewish, and Sikh Americans.
On February 10, 2025, Rev. Paul Brandeis Raushenbush - president and CEO of Interfaith Alliance - appeared on CNN discussing Trump's creation of a task force to investigate the federal government's "targeting" of Christians.
