-- A troubling rise in hate crimes is leading to action to protect religious communities.
State and federal officials are working to protect houses of worship ahead of some important holidays. "Passover is a holiday for the Jewish people that celebrates freedom, our exodus from Egypt," said David-Seth Kirshner, a rabbi at Temple Emanu-El in Closter.From the locked doors to security cameras and armed guards, his synagogue spends a disproportionate amount of its operating budget on security. That's especially true around holidays.
"Whenever there is a holiday, whenever there is increased traffic, whenever there is time of celebration, we always look over our shoulder a little bit more," he said.
