Republican lawmaker's office reportedly vandalized over Israel stance

Rep. Monica De La Cruz, R-Texas, spoke to Fox Business after her office in Texas was vandalized with anti-Israel messages.

"Someone, an individual, came to my local McAllen, Texas, office and vandalized it," De La Cruz said in an interview on Friday. 

Photos De La Cruz shared with Fox Business show her district office vandalized with messages that read "Monica Murders" and "Israel kills Jews too."

"While we have a small Jewish community in this area, it is a vibrant community. And I have made known to the local rabbis that I will continue to stand firm and will not back down from my support with Israel," she said. 

Asked about the Biden administration's efforts to crack down on antisemitism on college campuses, De La Cruz said Jewish students must feel safe and secure at school.

"In the United States, we should not accept antisemitism in our nation, not at our schools," she said. "Jewish children who are learning, whether at the university or at their local high schools, should not be afraid to attend their school."
