Jewish community leaders in Chicago are pressing Mayor Brandon Johnson to establish an antisemitism task force, according to demands made by the Anti-Defamation League.

The ADL is calling on Johnson to adopt recommendations from the Chicago Commission that would create protective measures for the Jewish community. The proposal has reportedly been sitting on the mayor's desk for nearly a month without action.

The push for the task force comes amid ongoing concerns about antisemitic incidents in the city. The proposed commission would focus on developing strategies to protect Jewish residents and address antisemitism in Chicago.

Mayor Johnson has not yet publicly responded to the ADL's demands or indicated when he might act on the task force recommendations. The delay has prompted increased pressure from Jewish advocacy organizations seeking concrete steps to address community safety concerns.
