Hikind blasts Democratic boycott of Netanyahu speech
Assemblymember says he’d like to attend
Assemblyman Dov Hikind is making an unusual request of the man who represents him in congress. And it has nothing to do with a constituent concern.
Hikind (D-Borough Park) says he’s outraged by talk among congressional Democrats of a possible boycott of Benjamin Netanyahu when the Israeli prime minister delivers a speech before a joint session of congress next month.
Hikind has reached out to Nadler (D-Manhattan-Bensonhurst-Borough Park) and asked the congressman if he can take his place in the House chamber on March 3 should Nadler decide to skip the speech.
