Lowey Statement on Ann Coulter Anti-Semitic Comments

WASHINGTON – Congresswoman Nita Lowey (D-Westchester/Rockland) today released the following statement in response to Ann Coulter’s comments on CNBC's “The Big Idea” that the nation would be better off if all Americans were Christian.

“Ann Coulter has demonstrated time and again that she has no shame in her willingness to offend, inflame, and incite with hateful rhetoric, all in the name of profit and publicity. Even so, it is shocking that she would make such brazen and anti-Semitic comments. Her statements encourage anti-Semitism and religious intolerance. I call on Ms. Coulter to apologize to Americans of all faiths.”
