Representative Warren Davidson compared Washington D.C.'s new district-wide vaccination entry requirement to Nazi policy requiring citizens to show documents.
In response to Davidson's tweet, the Auschwitz Memorial tagged his account in a public message directed towards him and published on Wednesday morning.
The Auschwitz Memorial is a Holocaust remembrance museum and grieving place located on the site of where Auschwitz, the notoriously deadly and brutal Nazi concentration camp, once stood. Such comparisons have been discouraged by other Jewish and Holocaust remembrance organizations. The organizations feel the comparisons minimize the roughly 6 million European Jews and other marginalized people killed by Nazis in the Holocaust, which occurred from 1941 to 1945. Such comparisons also encourage violence against politicians, vaccination workers and mandate enforcers, the groups say.
