Joshua Solomon, owner of the Hartford Yard Goats baseball team and co-founder and president of The DSF Group, was named recipient of the 2021 Jewish National Fund-USA’s (JNF-USA) prestigious Tree of Life Award, in recognition of his outstanding community involvement and dedication to the cause of American-Israeli friendship.
The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) announced that it will not host a policy conference in 2022, the second consecutive year it has made the decision citing ongoing COVID-19 pandemic concerns. Another concern was that activists may not be able to fully access congressional offices on the last day of the conference, when thousands of activists lobby in person. AIPAC opted not to run a conference online. Here, former New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg speaks at AIPAC’s 2020 policy conference. (Saul Loeb/AFP via Getty Images)
