Israel’s prime minister and President Barack Obama’s chief of staff were the featured speakers at Tuesday’s closing plenary of one of the largest annual conferences of American Jewry, the General Assembly of the Jewish Federations of North America, taking place this year in Washington.

The three-day GA concluded with the speeches by Benjamin Netanyahu, White House Chief of Staff Denis McDonough, former Canadian foreign minister John Baird, and Olympic Steel CEO and JFNA board chair Michael Siegel.

Over 150 local Jewish federations are represented by the JFNA, making it the largest Jewish philanthropy conference in the largest Diaspora Jewish community.
