🕊️ Jewish rabbi's family story reveals urgent message about immigration reform. Rabbi Elle Muhlbaum, whose grandfather fled Nazi Germany, shares her powerful perspective as both a religious leader and descendant of refugees. Her personal connection to immigration runs deep - her husband came from the Soviet Union as a refugee, and together they're raising children with a rich immigrant heritage. Writing in early 2025, she condemns attempts to dismantle birthright citizenship and calls for comprehensive immigration reform that honors America's immigrant foundations. The rabbi emphasizes the biblical mandate to protect strangers, connecting ancient Jewish teachings to current humanitarian challenges.
