American Jewish groups congratulated President-elect Donald Trump after his poll-defying victory over Democratic Hillary Clinton in Tuesday’s election.

In a statement, Stephen M. Greenberg and Malcolm Hoenlein, respectively Chairman of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations and the group’s executive Vice Chairman said they welcomed Trump’s “clear commitment to be a president for all Americans and to ‘’bind the wounds of division’ after a long and bruising campaign.’’

‘The Conference stands ready to contribute to the hard work of healing the divides in our country which were revealed at times in stark terms during the campaign,” they said.

The two Jewish leaders added, “we look forward to working with President-elect Trump and his advisors in the transition before his inauguration and in the years to come during his presidency on the issues facing our country, as well as of specific concern to the American Jewish community including strengthening the special US-Israel relationship, the rise of anti-Semitism and the security of the Jewish people at home and abroad.”

Greenberg and Hoenlein also commended Clinton “on her hard fought campaign” and extended “our deepest gratitude for her lifelong accomplishments in public service on behalf of the American people.”

American Jewish Committee CEO David Harris expressed hope that Trump’s administration would “take early steps to reach out to every American, including concerned minority communities across the land; reaffirm our links to our friends across the globe; and, in the months and years to come, advance peace, security and prosperity for our nation and the world.”

Rabbi Abraham Cooper, associate dean of the Simon Wiesenthal Center in Los Angeles, told The Algemeiner that “it’s clear Trump will be a great supporter of the State of Israel and of the commitment to recognizing Jerusalem as the eternal unified capital of the Jewish people.”

“The Simon Wiesenthal Center looks forward to working with Trump on a wide range of issues — first and foremost Israel, as well as Iran, human rights, antisemitism and also the climate on US campuses for Jewish students,” Cooper continued. “It’s going to be a full menu.”

The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) said in statement, “AIPAC congratulates President-elect Donald Trump and Vice President-elect Mike Pence on their election victory. We also congratulate the elected and re-elected senators and representatives who will be part of the most pro-Israel Congress ever, and look forward to working with them and the new administration to further strengthen the US-Israel relationship.’’

The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) National Chair Marvin D. Nathan and ADL CEO Jonathan A. Greenblatt said, “We welcome Mr. Trump’s pledge that he will be president for all Americans, and that he will seek the common ground and reconciliation that has been the hallmark of American elections and the transitions that follow.’’

The Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) President Morton A. Klein said in a statement, “We look forward to a Trump/Pence administration that will rebuild America, heal America’s internal divisions, inspire all Americans and people throughout the world, and be a great friend to the State of Israel.”
