市政厅多次将纽约市市长佐赫兰·曼达尼的19人司法咨询委员会标榜为纽约市法律行业“真正具有代表性的跨领域群体”，但四个犹太律师协会表示，委员会中没有一名犹太成员。
这些在反诽谤联盟（ADL）支持下的团体要求曼达尼纠正这个极具影响力的委员会的严重疏漏。该委员会负责筛选并推荐纽约五个行政区各类法院的法官候选人，涵盖刑事法院、家事法院，以及临时的民事法院。
市政厅在7月22日宣布该委员会成立时，曾称赞曼达尼的19人司法咨询委员会是“真正具有代表性的跨领域群体”。与此同时，曼达尼在1月2日发布的设立该委员会的行政命令中规定，委员会成员“应反映纽约市的多元人口构成”。
“今日宣布的成员涵盖了纽约市法律行业真正具有代表性的跨领域群体，为市长司法咨询委员会带来了来自五个行政区的广泛专业经验，”负责监督该委员会活动的市长及市政厅首席法律顾问拉姆齐·卡塞姆说道。

“在曼达尼市长的领导下，[市长司法咨询委员会]将横跨法律界，打造广泛且高素质的司法申请人选池，”卡塞姆继续说道，“由在各类法律环境中为纽约同胞服务过的法官组成的独立公正司法体系，对健康的民主至关重要，这些任命体现了本届政府对公平、包容和透明的司法遴选程序的承诺。”
但布兰代斯协会、犹太律师公会、布鲁克林布兰代斯协会和皇后区布兰代斯协会以及其他批评人士表示，这个19人委员会甚至没有一名犹太成员，这暴露了市政厅的言辞与任命之间的明显矛盾。
“在反犹主义抬头、犹太社区日益受到威胁之际，将犹太声音排除在这个有影响力的机构之外，不仅令人沮丧，而且十分危险，”这些团体在周一致曼达尼的联名信中写道，“这个受托塑造司法未来的委员会没有犹太代表，向犹太社区传递了极其令人不安的信息，损害了委员会的公信力和公平服务所有纽约人的能力。”
纽约州议员呼吁司法部调查曼达尼，在袭击事件后保护犹太纽约人
除曼达尼外，这些团体还将这封信寄给了纽约州州长凯西·霍楚尔、纽约州总检察长莉蒂希娅·詹姆斯、纽约州首席法官罗兰·威尔逊，以及其他州、市和司法官员。
这封呼吁“纠正这种排斥行为”的警告信发出之际，纽约市犹太社区的安全担忧再度升温。
当局表示，周二，一名携带锤子的入侵者闯入皇后区犹太学院园区，在与保安对峙期间将一名8岁男孩推倒在围栏上，导致该儿童头部受伤。警方认为这名男孩并非袭击目标，调查人员尚未确定作案动机。
这起令人恐慌的事件发生在上周一名东正教犹太男子在离开上西区犹太教堂后不久被人用螺丝刀刺中胸部的涉嫌仇恨犯罪袭击之后。检察官称，嫌疑人在实施袭击前高喊“为伊斯兰伸张正义”和“真主至大”。

市长办公室、市长司法咨询委员会和委员会主席阿里·纳吉米在截稿前未回应福克斯新闻数字频道的置评请求。不过，曼达尼的新闻秘书乔·卡尔瓦洛告诉NBC纽约，任何暗示市长司法咨询委员会的任命是出于宗教动机的说法都是“虚假的”。
卡尔瓦洛表示，曼达尼任命了“十余名背景各异的合格法官，其中包括犹太法官”，并表示政府在得知退休法官约翰·莱文塔尔曾为吉斯莱恩·麦克斯韦的法律团队工作后，拒绝任命他。
“别搞错了，民主党领袖曼达尼市长正试图强行将纽约其他政府部门纳入他的意识形态轨道，”曾担任前众议院议长凯文·麦卡锡通讯主管、时任众议员肖恩·达菲通讯主任的纪念碑倡导组织负责人马克·贝德纳告诉福克斯新闻数字频道，“各个背景的美国人都应该注意到他的意识形态构成的威胁，并为他任命担任重要职位的任何人敲响警钟。”

犹太民权律师杰拉德·菲利蒂指出，在这个拥有全美最大犹太人口的城市，犹太成员的缺失尤其引人注目。他还指出了该委员会对审理仇恨犯罪案件的法院的影响力。
“他自己的首席法律顾问称这份名单是该市法律行业真正具有代表性的跨领域群体，而这座拥有美国最多犹太人口的城市，将由这个委员会遴选审理仇恨犯罪案件的法官，”菲利蒂在X平台上写道，“市政厅没有否认这种排斥，而是转而提及曼达尼在其他地方任命的法官。纽约犹太民众理应获得与其他人一样的代表权，但这位市长刚刚组建的委员会却没有给他们任何代表权。”

No Jews on Mamdani’s ‘truly representative’ NYC judiciary panel, sparking backlash

Mamdani panel helps select judges who will hear hate-crime cases across New York City

Jewish leaders react to Mamdani’s admission that he can’t arrest Netanyahu
Leaders from Manhattan Jewish Experience and the Orthodox Union warn that Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s statements on Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have deepened tensions between the Jewish community and City Hall.

City Hall repeatedly touted New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s 19-member judiciary advisory panel as a “truly representative cross-section” of New York City’s legal profession — but four Jewish bar associations say not one Jewish member was appointed.
The groups, backed by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), are demanding Mamdani correct what they called a profound omission from the influential committee, which screens and recommends candidates for judgeships across the five boroughs and across various different courts, including Criminal Court, Family Court and, on an interim basis, Civil Court.
City Hall touted Mamdani’s 19-member judiciary advisory panel as a “truly representative cross-section” when it was announced July 22. Meanwhile, Mamdani’s own Jan. 2 executive order establishing the committee stated that its membership “shall reflect the cosmopolitan population of the City of New York.”
“The members announced today offer a truly representative cross-section of the legal profession in New York City, bringing a wide range of professional experience from all five boroughs to the Mayor’s Advisory Committee on the Judiciary,” said Ramzi Kassem, chief counsel to the mayor and City Hall, who supervises the activities of the Committee.

“Under Mayor Mamdani’s leadership, [the Mayor’s Advisory Committee on the Judiciary] will reach across the legal community to build a broad and highly qualified pool of judicial applicants,” Kassem continued. “An independent and impartial judiciary composed of jurists who have served their fellow New Yorkers in a range of legal circumstances is essential to a healthy democracy, and these appointments reflect our administration’s commitment to a fair, inclusive and transparent judicial selection process.”
But the Brandeis Association, Jewish Lawyers Guild, Brooklyn Brandeis Society and Queens Brandeis Association — along with other critics — say the absence of even one Jewish member from the 19-person panel exposes a glaring contradiction between City Hall’s rhetoric and its appointments.
“At a time when antisemitism is rising and Jewish communities are increasingly under threat, excluding Jewish voices from this influential body is not only disheartening, it is dangerous,” the groups wrote in a joint letter they sent to Mamdani on Monday. “The absence of Jewish representation on a committee entrusted with shaping the future of our judiciary sends a deeply troubling message to the Jewish community and undermines the committee’s credibility and ability to serve all New Yorkers fairly.”

In addition to Mamdani, the four groups sent the letter to New York Gov. Kathy Hochul, New York Attorney General Letitia James and New York Chief Judge Rowan Wilson, along with other state, city and judicial officials.
The letter’s warning, which included calls to “correct this exclusion,” came amid renewed fears over Jewish safety in the city.
On Tuesday, a hammer-carrying intruder entered the grounds of the Jewish Institute of Queens and shoved an 8-year-old boy into a fence during a struggle with security, leaving the child with a head injury, authorities said. Police did not believe the boy was the intended target, and investigators have not established a motive.
The frightening episode followed last week’s alleged hate-crime attack on an Orthodox Jewish man who was stabbed in the chest with a screwdriver shortly after leaving an Upper West Side synagogue. Prosecutors say the suspect shouted “Justice for Islam” and “Allahu Akbar” before committing the attack.

The mayor’s office, the Mayor’s Advisory Committee on the Judiciary and committee Chairman Ali Najmi did not respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment by publication time. However, Mamdani press secretary Joe Calvello told NBC New York that any suggestion the appointments to the Mayor’s Advisory Committee on the Judiciary were motivated by religion was “false.”
Calvello said Mamdani had appointed “a dozen qualified judges from a range of backgrounds, including Jewish judges,” and said the administration declined to appoint retired Justice John Leventhal, who is Jewish, after learning he had served on Ghislaine Maxwell’s legal team.
“Make no mistake, the leader of the Democrat Party, Mayor Mamdani, is working to bulldoze the rest of New York government to fit his ideology,” Mark Bednar, a principal at Monument Advocacy who previously led communications for former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and served as communications director for then-Rep. Sean Duffy, told Fox News Digital. “Americans of all backgrounds should take notice of the threat his ideology poses, and to sound the alarm about anyone he appoints to important positions.”

Jewish civil rights attorney Gerard Filitti argued that the absence of Jewish members was particularly glaring in a city with the largest Jewish population in the country. He also pointed out the committee’s influence over the courts that hear hate-crime cases.
“His own chief counsel called the slate a truly representative cross-section of the city’s legal profession, in the city with the largest Jewish population in America, on the panel that will pick the judges who hear hate-crime cases,” Filitti wrote on X. “City Hall did not deny the exclusion. It changed the subject to judges Mamdani appointed elsewhere. Jewish New Yorkers are owed the same representation as everyone else, and this mayor just seated a panel that gives them none.”
