On May 9, three Bergen County High School of Jewish Studies students accompanied by their principal, Fred Nagler, joined the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) Washington, D.C. Mission. Jarod Forer, Sarah Gordon and Sam Pitchkhadze listened to Mort Klein, president of the ZOA, as well as a number of members of the House of Representatives, including Josh Gottheimer and two senators—Ben Cardin of Maryland and Ted Cruz. They then accompanied the New Jersey delegation to speak to and hear from New Jersey Senator Robert Menendez and then Dan Marrow, foreign policy legislative assistant to Josh Gottheimer.
