Congressional candidate Omari Hardy is standing by his positions supporting the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement and opposition to supplemental funding for Israel`s iron dome missile-defense system. The Florida Democratic Party Jewish Caucus said it opposes his election `because of his positions on these fundamental issues.” And U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, first Jewish woman from Florida elected to the U.S. House, repudiated Hardy`s positions (though she avoided mentioning Hardy`s name.)
