Jewish Museum Back Out of Hosting Gov. Ron DeSantis in an Event

A Jewish institution in NYC that has hosted Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and former NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio cancelled a speech by Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, according to two organisers.

The Museum of Jewish Heritage had agreed to hold the Jewish Leadership Conference for Tikvah, a Jewish educational and cultural institution, on June 12.

The museum issued an ultimatum after realising the list of roughly 15 speakers included Florida's fiery governor.

Nonetheless, this has been denied by the museum.
