Senator Tice introduced the resolution on the floor; Senator Theis spoke in support, urging colleagues to set aside partisan differences and condemn antisemitism. \"I rise to speak in support of Senate Resolution No. 34, which recognizes April 29, 2025, as End Jew Hatred Day in the state of Michigan,\" Senator Theis said on the floor. \"This resolution is not merely symbolic. It is a declaration that we as representatives of the people of Michigan unequivocally condemn Jew hatred in all its forms.\"

Senator Theis cited a history of persecution against Jewish people and said recent years have seen an increase in hate crimes targeting the Jewish community in workplaces, on campuses and in public spaces. Theis asked colleagues to join in condemning discrimination and to support the resolution. Theis also requested the resolution be recorded in the journal.

The resolution passed by voice vote; the presiding officer called the question and, after the ayes and nays, declared the resolution adopted. After adoption, Senator Theis invited representatives from the Jewish Federation of Greater Ann Arbor and other guests — including Rabbi Asher LePatton and visiting officers of the Israel Defense Forces — to rise in the gallery for recognition by the Senate.
