For the first time since 1979, a US president personally received Habad rabbis in the Oval Office. Vice President JD Vance, Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, and US Secretary of State Marco Rubio attended the meeting. Vance expressed admiration for the number of children in Orthodox families.
Formally, the meeting was dedicated to the upcoming Jewish New Year (Rosh Hashanah). In addition to congratulations, the conversation covered the lives of Orthodox communities, the expansion of tax benefits, and even military conscription.
