Beer’s goal is to share his first-hand account of the horrifying acts that took place during Hamas’ brutal massacre of Israelis - Jewish, Muslim and Christian alike - on October 7th. As a first responder who went to treat people following the attacks on Gaza border communities, Beer, together with his fellow responders from United Hatzalah bore witness to the worst atrocities that have ever taken place in Israel’s history.

As part of the outreach campaign, and after receiving an invitation to share his story from the Jewish Republican Coalition CEO Matthew Brooks, Beer will speak on the central stage of the Republican Jewish Coalition event, addressing the Republican Party’s leadership head-on.
Hundreds of US lawmakers and thought leaders, including former US President Donald Trump, are expected to be in attendance and Beer will have the chance to speak for the more than 1,400 dead and share the horrific and tragic testimonies of their murders at the hands of brutal terrorists. These vivid testimonies and stories can only be internalized by hearing someone who witnessed their aftermath. Beer will also share testimonies of some of the more than 4,800 people who were injured in the attack, and the first responders who treated them.

During the visit, Beer will share recordings, photos and videos from the scene of the attacks, providing a vivid account of the massacre that took place on the darkest Saturday morning in Israel’s history. Beer’s address comes ahead of a consequential Senate vote on an emergency aid package for Israel following Biden’s decision to back Israel’s war efforts.

“From the beginning of the attack, thousands of United Hatzalah volunteers risked their lives going into the line of fire to save Israeli civilians and soldiers,” said Beer upon his arrival in the US. “We are now witnessing attempts by the Hamas propaganda machine to deny and minimize the magnitude of these massacres to improve its international standing during the war, and it is our obligation, as those who bore witness to these barbaric acts, to garner unwavering support for Israel from US decision-makers. I told some of these stories to the president, and now I am going to tell them to members of the Republican leadership. This issue is not one that is a political issue, it is a human issue, and everyone, on all sides of the political spectrum, in every country, needs to stand up to the perpetrators of these vile acts and say in a loud and clear voice, no more.”
