Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence shows ongoing, multi-faceted policy efforts rather than a single completed program. The State Department has developed and promoted Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, with international endorsements starting in 2024, and the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues maintains continued engagement on memory and restitution issues.

Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department’s Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism provide an international framework and have gained endorsements through 2025, signaling ongoing policy work (State Department page). The U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (NSCA) remains the central policy reference with continued actions and related legislative activity into 2025–2026 (policy summaries and congressional references). In 2026, official observances and presidential messages continued to foreground Holocaust memory and survivor issues (White House statements).
What progress has been completed, remains in progress, or failed: While there are concrete policy frameworks and institutional proposals (e.g., potential DOJ counter-antisemitism coordination in 2025–2026), publicly verifiable, quantified reductions in antisemitic incidents or a comprehensive reparations/education package with full milestones have not been publicly announced as completed. The mechanisms exist, but final, sovereign-wide implementation metrics are not yet published.
Dates and milestones: July 2024 marked the
Buenos Aires launch of the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, with ongoing endorsements through 2025 (State Department page). Legislative activity in 2025–2026, including bills to establish a National Coordinator to Counter Antisemitism, indicates formal steps toward implementation (Congress.gov). January 2026 featured renewed Holocaust remembrance rhetoric from the White House reflecting continued policy emphasis (Presidential Message on International Holocaust Remembrance Day).
Reliability of sources: Primary government sources (State Department, White House) provide authoritative statements and timelines. Legislative texts (Congress.gov) offer concrete policy moves. While these sources establish intent and framework, they do not alone confirm nationwide incident reductions or complete reparations all milestones, so the assessment remains ongoing based on publicly available information.

Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The government framework anchoring this pledge is the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (May 2023) which lays out a whole-of-society approach with four pillars and hundreds of actions across federal agencies and other sectors (Justice Dept Hate Crimes, 2023; National Strategy). State Department materials also emphasize ongoing accountability measures tied to the Justice for Uncompensated Survivors Today (JUST) Act, which tracks countries’ implementation of Holocaust-era restitution commitments (JUST Act Report, State Dept; 2020–2024). These elements collectively form the policy architecture intended to realize the claim, but no single date or milestone marks full completion; progress is modular and ongoing rather than finished.
Update · Feb 13, 2026, 01:40 PMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The State Department reaffirms this commitment in the International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement (Jan 27, 2026), presenting it as an ongoing government posture supported by Holocaust Issues programs and the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues.
Progress evaluation: No final completion date or endpoint is announced; the actions described indicate ongoing policy implementation rather than a completed project. Independent assessments from 2024–2025 show persistent global antisemitism, underscoring the need for continuous
U.S. action in this area.
Dates and milestones: The key documented datum is the January 27, 2026 State Department release tying the policy to countering antisemitism, supporting survivors and heirs, and defending Holocaust memory. There is no stated deadline or completed milestone; implementation is framed as enduring.
Source reliability note: The principal source is an official U.S. government statement from the State Department, a primary source for the policy claim. Supplementary reporting from independent organizations on global antisemitism highlights the ongoing nature of the challenge, reinforcing the rationale for continued U.S. action.
Synthesis: Based on available public records, the claim remains in_progress with no announced completion date and ongoing policy mechanisms intended to counter antisemitism, assist survivors and heirs, and safeguard Holocaust memory.
Update · Feb 13, 2026, 12:04 PMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress and evidence to date: In 2023 the administration released The U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, outlining a whole-of-government plan with four pillars to combat antisemitism domestically and internationally, and to coordinate allied efforts. The State Department continues to emphasize an ongoing global effort, including the creation of the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and related initiatives. Public
U.S. statements on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (notably January 27, 2026) reiterate a commitment to counter antisemitism and defend Holocaust memory, including official messaging from the State Department and, in at least one high-level White House message, a pledge to use all tools to combat
anti-Semitism.
Evidence of completion or current status: There is no published, universally accepted completion metric or deadline that would mark the promise as fully completed. The JUST Act Report (State Department) tracks progress toward restitution and remembrance across 46 countries and highlights ongoing gaps in Holocaust-era property restitution and survivor welfare; it demonstrates persistent work rather than final closure. In short, measurable international reductions in antisemitic incidents or definitive resolution of all reparations claims have not yet materialized; rather, policy frameworks and ongoing reporting indicate continued progress and continued incompleteness.
Milestones and dates: The National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism was released in May 2023; the JUST Act Report framework and country-by-country assessments have been ongoing since 2019–2020, with periodic updates (latest public reference through 2020 data, cited in 2020 report materials) and ongoing implementation discussions through 2026. The January 2026 State Department release and January 27, 2026 Presidential/State statements reaffirm the ongoing policy orientation and commitment to Holocaust memory and anti-Semitism countermeasures. These items collectively indicate continued policy activity but not a finalized, universally verified completion of the stated goals.
Reliability notes: The primary sources are official U.S. government documents and statements (State Department releases, JUST Act reporting, White House presidential statement). These sources are authoritative for U.S. policy pronouncements, though they describe policy intentions and progress rather than independent, third-party verification of incident reductions or reparations outcomes.
Bottom line: The claim remains in_progress. The United States has established and publicly articulated comprehensive, multi-pillar strategies and memorializing actions, but demonstrable, universal completion across antisemitism reduction, survivor/heir reparations, and Holocaust-memory preservation remains ongoing with substantial work in multiple jurisdictions.
Update · Feb 13, 2026, 09:42 AMin_progress
What the claim promises:
The United States commits to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. It envisions a comprehensive, government-wide effort leveraging policy, education, and international cooperation to reduce antisemitic incidents and preserve Holocaust remembrance. This aligns with the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism released in 2023 and related international guidelines.
Evidence of progress: The National Strategy formalizes a whole-of-government approach with interagency coordination and international engagement. State Department materials and the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism provide actionable practices and cooperation mechanisms. Government reports and briefings through 2021–2025 reflect ongoing policy development, monitoring, and resource allocation to counter antisemitism and support Holocaust memory.
Current status: A robust policy framework exists and is being implemented, but there is no publicly released, globally verifiable metric showing a definitive reduction in antisemitic incidents worldwide. The completion condition—demonstrable reductions in antisemitism and tangible reparative actions for survivors/heirs—has not been certified as finished. Progress is ongoing and measured by continued guideline dissemination, reporting, and interagency action.
Milestones and reliability: Key milestones include the May 2023 national strategy release and subsequent state department and justice department resources through 2024–2025. The sources are official
U.S. government documents, offering a credible, policy-focused lens. Given incentives to demonstrate progress and maintain international coalitions, the reporting reflects an ongoing, long-term effort rather than a discrete end state.
Update · Feb 13, 2026, 06:43 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim: The State Department pledge that
the United States “will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory” remains the stated goal, with no single, universally declared completion date.
Progress evidence: The
U.S. formally reaffirmed this stance on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026), issuing a press statement that reiterates countering antisemitism, supporting survivors and heirs, and safeguarding Holocaust memory (State Department). The JUST Act-related restitution work and ongoing education efforts are documented by State Department materials, indicating continued government focus rather than an endpoint.
Status of completion: No comprehensive global completion has occurred. There are country-specific reforms and restitution cases, but many gaps persist, particularly around heirless and communal property, and art provenance, according to official country reports and international frameworks.
Dates and milestones: Foundational milestones include the Prague Conference (2009) and the Prague/Terezin framework, plus the Washington Principles on
Nazi-Confiscated Art; the JUST Act Report tracks progress through the 2010s and into recent years, with continued updates by the State Department.
Source reliability note: Primary references are the U.S. Department of State’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day release and the JUST Act materials, which are official documents outlining policy, restitution efforts, and education initiatives, supplemented by established international frameworks on
Holocaust remembrance and restitution.
Update · Feb 13, 2026, 04:25 AMin_progress
The claim asserts that
the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Public statements from the State Department on International Holocaust Remembrance Day (January 27, 2026) explicitly reiterate this commitment as a core policy stance and tie it to ongoing work on antisemitism, survivor restitution, and
Holocaust remembrance. The department also highlights programs under the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and related initiatives that address asset restitution, archival access, provenance research, and education.
Evidence of progress includes: (1) formal policy articulation and annual commemorations by the State Department that frame antisemitism countermeasures and memory preservation as ongoing
U.S. commitments; (2) continued activity of the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues (SEHI) in pursuing Holocaust-era restitution, archives access, and education, with program updates and reporting tied to the Terezin Declaration framework; and (3) the Justice for Uncompensated Survivors Today (JUST) Act framework, which continues to guide reporting on countries’ implementation of restitution and compensation commitments for Holocaust-era assets (documented in the JUST Act Report series).
However, there is no completed, universal implementation of these promises. The JUST Act notes gaps across many countries in real property restitution, heirless property, and movable-asset restitution, indicating that progress is uneven and incomplete. The January 2026 State Department release frames the work as ongoing, with visible accountability mechanisms and commemorative leadership, but not a final, fully realized fulfillment of all restitution, memory-preservation, or anti-antisemitism actions worldwide.
Concrete milestones cited include: (a) the January 2026 IHRA-aligned statements and public reaffirmation of anti-antisemitism and Holocaust-memory integrity by the State Department; (b) ongoing SEHI activities and interagency coordination to advance restitution and remembrance under the Terezin Declaration; and (c) the JUST Act Report framework, which continuously assesses country progress and identifies remaining gaps through country-by-country chapters. These elements collectively reflect sustained policy intent and incremental progress, not a finished completion of the stated goals.
Reliability note: the core sources are official U.S. government communications (State Department press releases and the JUST Act Report), which provide primary documentation of policy intent, implemented programs, and identified gaps. These sources are complemented by established archival and restitution literature referenced within the JUST Act framework, which helps contextualize the incentives and obstacles shaping U.S. policy on antisemitism, survivor justice, and Holocaust memory.
Update · Feb 13, 2026, 02:49 AMin_progress
Claim restatement: The
US commitment to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory remains ongoing policy rather than a completed action.
Progress to date: The framework is anchored in the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (2023), which outlines a four‑pillar, whole‑of‑society approach, and its guidance continues to shape policy and funding. Recent State Department statements (Jan 27, 2026) reaffirm ongoing remembrance, education, and anti‑antisemitism work at the international level.
Evidence of progress: Publicly released materials show policy design, programmatic activity, and international engagement aimed at reducing antisemitic incidents and supporting Holocaust survivors and heirs; however, there is no single, public ledger of measurable global antisemitism reductions or a formal completion milestone.
Reliability and incentives: Primary sources are official government communications (State Department releases, White House archives) that reflect coherent federal incentives to coordinate across agencies and with Holocaust remembrance organizations, with emphasis on memory integrity, survivor rights, and education.
Update · Feb 13, 2026, 12:14 AMin_progress
Restating the claim:
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The claim aligns with ongoing
U.S. government efforts to address antisemitism internationally, support survivor rights, and promote Holocaust education and memory preservation. Public statements emphasize leadership in implementing international guidelines and coordinating with partners to meet these objectives.
Progress evidence: the State Department highlights the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, first launched in 2024 and endorsed by dozens of states and organizations; the current endorsements list includes numerous governments and international bodies (as of Nov 2025). The U.S. has also publicly affirmed commitment to Holocaust education, memory, and combating antisemitic hate through OSCE-related forums and other multilateral engagements. The JUST Act report (State Department) documents ongoing U.S. attention to reparations or restitution for Holocaust survivors and heirs, signaling continued policy attention rather than a completed program.
What is completed vs. in progress: there is no singular completion date or benchmark that fully satisfies the claim. Endorsements of international guidelines and the active pursuit of memory-preservation education are ongoing, with concrete steps called for (e.g., enforcement of hate-crime laws, education initiatives, and data collection) rather than a finished, universal outcome. The justice dimension—legal remedies for survivors and heirs—remains contingent on domestic and international litigation, policy action, and bilateral negotiations, not a completed U.S. program.
Key dates and milestones: the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism were announced in
Buenos Aires in 2024 and have since accrued endorsements (including the United States) through late 2025. The 2025-2026 OSCE and international forums have featured high-level U.S. statements calling for concrete actions rather than merely commitments. The JUST Act reports are periodically updated to track progress on restitution and survivor support, reflecting ongoing oversight rather than closure.
Reliability and caveats: the sources are official U.S. government briefings and policy documents (State Department pages and the JUST Act report), which provide authoritative framing of policy aims and progress. Independent assessments of antisemitic incidents and restitution outcomes vary by country and case, so while engagement and framework-building are well-documented, measurable international reductions in antisemitic incidents are not uniformly reported. Overall, the available evidence supports active, continuing U.S. efforts rather than a completed, fully realized outcome.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 08:05 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The January 2026 State Department statement on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day explicitly reaffirms this commitment, framing it as a standing policy objective rather than a finite program. The language signals ongoing prioritization rather than a one-time action plan (State Department press release, 2026-01-27).
Evidence of progress: The
U.S. government continues to publicly emphasize combating antisemitism and advancing Holocaust-related restitution and education. The Department maintains the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and references the JUST Act framework and related restitution efforts, which track country actions on Holocaust-era assets and education initiatives (JUST Act Report, ongoing State Department materials). In addition, the State Department’s
anti-Semitism policy pages highlight ongoing government activities and reporting on antisemitism-related issues (State Department policy pages, 2025).
What remains in progress or uncompleted: While commitments exist and programs are active, there is no single, clear completion milestone or date signaling full achievement of “measurable policies or actions” across the globe. Holocaust-memory integrity, survivor restitution, and education continue to require ongoing international cooperation, policy refinement, and funding, with uneven progress among countries and sectors (JUST Act framework and country reports; IHRA/ITF-aligned education initiatives referenced by State). The absence of a defined end date in the projection means the effort is inherently perpetual and subject to political and budgetary shifts (JUST Act materials; State anti-Semitism policy pages).
Milestones and dates: The JUST Act reports provide periodic benchmarks on country progress in implementing Holocaust-era restitution commitments; those reports have historically covered timelines through earlier years and serve as a reporting mechanism rather than a mutually binding enforcement timeline. The January 2026 remarks anchor the policy stance but do not establish new, enforceable completion dates for reductions in antisemitic incidents or full restitution across all states. Ongoing Secretary of State statements, embassy statements, and ITF-aligned Holocaust education updates remain the primary interpretive milestones (State Department JUST Act materials; IHRA/ITF education guidance cited by State).
Source reliability and balance: Primary sourcing from the U.S. Department of State provides an authoritative baseline for U.S. policy and actions. Complementary references to statutory reports (JUST Act) and the department’s antisemitism policy pages help frame progress and gaps without reliance on partisan outlets. Overall, the record remains anchored in official U.S. government documents, with incentive structures aligned to survivor welfare, Holocaust-memory preservation, and anti-antisemitism efforts, though international progress depends on partner governments and institutions.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 05:07 PMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of ongoing effort includes official statements around
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026) from the State Department reiterating commitment to counter antisemitism, support survivors and heirs, and safeguard Holocaust memory.
Concrete progress to date includes legislative and administrative steps: the Holocaust Education and Antisemitism Lessons Act (H.R.768) introduced in Jan 2025 to study and report on
Holocaust education efforts, and the continued operation of the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues (SEHI) to handle policy on restitution, memory, and commemorations.
There are indications of funding and policy attention aimed at strengthening these efforts, including discussions in 2025–2026 about increasing funding for SEHI and for anti-antisemitism initiatives within the State Department, signaling resource elevation though not a completed, universal policy victory yet.
Reliability: The claim is grounded in official
U.S. government statements and related policy and funding actions. These sources show intent and ongoing actions rather than full, final implementation of measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents or universal reparations; continued monitoring of bills and budgets will indicate progress.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 03:22 PMin_progress
Statement restatement: The claim (as quoted) reflects a long-standing
U.S. policy to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Public articulation of this commitment is evidenced by the January 27, 2026 State Department release marking
International Holocaust Remembrance Day, which explicitly reiterates that pledge. The administration’s framing emphasizes ongoing, principled stances rather than a one-off action.
Evidence of ongoing policy efforts: The State Department’s Office of the Spokesperson and the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) outline continued U.S. engagement on Holocaust remembrance, recovery of assets, restitution, and education/commemoration efforts. SEHI’s page emphasizes policies to return assets to rightful owners, secure compensation for
Nazi-era wrongs, and ensure Holocaust memory is properly remembered (as of May 2025). These institutional grooves signal sustained policy work aligned with the stated commitment.
Progress toward measurable outcomes: The available public material shows symbolic and policy-level progress (public statements, ongoing restitution and remembrance programs, and interagency coordination) but does not present quantifiable metrics (e.g., specific reductions in antisemitic incidents abroad, or completed reparations/education programs with defined milestones). The Just Act framework and National Strategy documents provide structure for accountability, yet concrete international incident reductions or completed reparations remain unreported in the sources reviewed.
Milestones and dates: January 27, 2026: State Department press statement reiterates the commitment to counter antisemitism, support Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory. May 2, 2025: SEHI notes ongoing work on asset restitution and remembrance. May 30, 2023: U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (Justice Department) outlines pillars for a whole-of-society approach, providing a policy backbone for future actions. None of these items describe final completion of the promised outcomes.
Source reliability and incentives: Primary evidence comes from official U.S. government sources (State Department pages and the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues), which are appropriate for assessing national policy statements and actions. The materials reflect governmental incentives to demonstrate a comprehensive, bipartisan commitment to Holocaust memory, survivor justice, and anti-antisemitism work. Given the absence of a public, verifiable completion certificate or international metrics, the status is best characterized as ongoing policy implementation rather than finished.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 01:42 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The State Department reiterated this commitment in conjunction with
International Holocaust Remembrance Day on January 27, 2026, framing it as a sustained, principled stance rather than a one-off action. The claim is thus framed as an ongoing
U.S. policy objective rather than a finished project (State Dept press materials, 2026).
Evidence of progress: The administration emphasizes a whole-of-society approach to counter antisemitism, anchored in the 2023 National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism and subsequent global guidelines and actions. Public documents highlight ongoing interagency efforts, international guideline development, and coordination with allies to advance education, memory preservation, and protections for Holocaust survivors and heirs (Justice Department/Hate Crimes, State Dept pages, 2023–2026; ADL progress tracking). The Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, launched 2024 and endorsed by multiple countries, signals institutional traction beyond rhetoric (State Dept, 2024–2026).
Current status of the completion condition: There is no publicly available completion dated milestone that conclusively demonstrates a universal, verifiable reduction in antisemitic incidents worldwide or complete reparative remedies for all Holocaust survivors and heirs. Instead, the record reflects ongoing programmatic actions, policy developments, and international cooperation intended to reduce antisemitism, support survivors, and preserve memory. Independent trackers (e.g., ADL action lists) document dozens of government actions with target dates, but many remain in-progress or ahead-of-schedule rather than completed (ADL, 2023–2026; State Dept, 2024–2026).
Dates and milestones: Key milestones include the 2023 National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, the 2024 Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, and continued annual observances and diplomacy around International Holocaust Remembrance Day. Specific actions and target dates are catalogued by U.S. agencies and civil-society partners, with progress updates published intermittently (Justice Dept/Hate Crimes, State Dept, ADL; 2023–2026).
Reliability of sources: The primary source is the U.S. State Department’s official press statement dated January 27, 2026, which directly articulates the policy commitment. Complementary context comes from the 2023 National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism and subsequent State Dept pages detailing Global Guidelines, plus civil-society trackers (ADL). Taken together, sources present a credible view of an ongoing, multi-faceted effort rather than a completed program.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 11:49 AMin_progress
Summary of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The claim is grounded in a 2026 State Department message surrounding
International Holocaust Remembrance Day, which publicly reiterates the
U.S. pledge to counter antisemitism and defend Holocaust memory. It also aligns with the ongoing U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (2023), which lays out a multi-pillared framework to confront antisemitism domestically and abroad, though progress metrics are largely described in policy actions rather than explicit international incident reductions.
What progress has been made: The U.S. has issued formal statements reaffirming its stance (e.g., State Department International Holocaust Remembrance Day release, Jan 27, 2026). In addition, the 2023 National Strategy outlines hundreds of actions across executive agencies and civil society to counter antisemitism, including education, advocacy, and policy enforcement, with ongoing implementation reported through various agency updates (e.g., Justice/Hate Crimes guidance and DOJ resources). There is no publicly available, comprehensive, independently audited metric showing a worldwide reduction in antisemitic incidents attributed to U.S. action, nor a concrete reparative program specifically framed as a universal international remedy for Holocaust survivors and heirs.
Current status of completion: The claim’s completion condition—measurable global reductions in antisemitic incidents, reparative remedies for survivors and heirs, and preservation/education efforts maintaining Holocaust memory—has not been publicly fulfilled in a fully verifiable, global sense as of February 2026. The administration’s statements and internal strategy documents indicate ongoing policy deployment, but concrete, worldwide impact data and internationally verifiable reparative mechanisms remain incomplete or not publicly published. The timelines for many actions in the National Strategy are multi-year and agency-specific, with periodic progress reports rather than a single completion date.
Key dates and milestones: January 27, 2026 – State Department statement marking International Holocaust Remembrance Day, reaffirming commitment to counter antisemitism and defend Holocaust memory. The National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, released May 2023, remains the foundational framework guiding actions across U.S. government agencies and civil society, with numerous actions listed and tracked by external organizations (e.g., ADL) as in-progress or ongoing. There is no identified, universally accepted completion date or outside verification of a worldwide decline in antisemitic incidents attributable to U.S. policy to date.
Reliability and context of sources: The primary proffered evidence comes from official U.S. government communications (State Department releases) and the Justice Department-backed National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, which are authoritative for policy intent. Independent assessments of impact on international antisemitism levels are scarce in publicly available sources; most analysis focuses on policy adoption, implementation steps, and domestic/human-rights framing. Given the policy-focused nature of the evidence, the assessment emphasizes ongoing commitment and actions rather than a concluded outcome.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 09:45 AMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence exists in official
U.S. diplomacy and structural initiatives rather than a single, discrete program. The Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism (SEAS) remains a formal government office tasked with advancing global counter-antisemitism policy and related programs.
Formal statements and commemorations reinforce the commitment: the International Holocaust Remembrance Day release affirms that the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory, with ongoing interagency collaboration noted.
Measurable progress indicators exist in budget and policy actions rather than fully quantified outcomes. The 2026 funding package increases support for SEAS, signaling a stronger financial commitment to counter-antisemitism initiatives, and there are published tools such as Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism.
Nevertheless, public metrics showing a global reduction in antisemitic incidents or a completed set of reparative remedies for Holocaust survivors and heirs are not publicly disclosed. Policies and education/remembrance efforts are expanding, but progress remains ongoing and programmatic rather than finished.
Source material from official State Department releases and SEAS materials underpin the assessment, with budget reporting providing context for resource commitments; the absence of a single completion date or universal outcome metrics means the status should be read as in_progress.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 05:05 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department released an International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement on January 27, 2026 reaffirming these aims as part of ongoing policy, signaling emphasis and continued diplomatic/educational activity rather than a completed program.
Progress toward completion: There are no public, independently verifiable milestones or metrics showing measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally, reparative remedies for survivors/heirs, or formalized preservation/education initiatives with quantified impact as of February 11, 2026; the claim remains a policy objective with ongoing actions.
Milestones and dates: The primary public signal is the January 27, 2026 State Department statement accompanying International Holocaust Remembrance Day; no explicit completion date or milestone schedule is provided.
Reliability of sources: The core evidence comes from official State Department communications, which are authoritative for policy framing; corroborating coverage confirms the framing but does not independently verify outcomes. Overall, sources support a policy intent rather than a finished program.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 03:37 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. This was articulated in a State Department press statement on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day, January 27, 2026, signaling a reaffirmed
U.S. policy stance and priority for ongoing efforts. The accompanying framing emphasizes a continuous, global commitment rather than a one-off action.
There is evidence of concrete progress toward implementing this pledge. A January 13, 2026 reporting cycle noted by media summarizes a finalized 2026 State Department funding package that, among other provisions, increases the appropriation for the Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism (SEAS) to about $2.6 million, up from $1.75 million, and ties some UN funding to commitments against antisemitism and
anti-Israel bias. This represents a tangible expansion of capacity to
Counter antisemitism and monitor related issues abroad.
Whether the promise has been completed is not yet determinable; the effort appears to be in-progress. The State Department’s SEAS operates as the designated channel for global antisemitism monitoring and countermeasures, and the funding package provides enhanced resources and oversight requirements, but there is no public, finalized metric showing a global decline in antisemitic incidents or a comprehensive remedial program for Holocaust survivors and heirs across all pertinent jurisdictions.
Key milestones include the January 27, 2026 press statement reiterating the commitment, and the January 13, 2026 funding package that enlarges SEAS resources and outlines accountability measures tied to UN funding and antisemitism countermeasures. The State Department’s SEAS page confirms the office’s ongoing role and its IHRA-aligned guidelines, underscoring the policy framework behind the rhetoric.
Source reliability is high for the core claim: the primary source is the official State Department press release from January 27, 2026, supplemented by contemporaneous reporting on the funding package and by SEAS’s own official page outlining its mission and guidelines. The combination supports a documented, incremental advance rather than a completed, universal program.
Follow-up note: given the evolving nature of global antisemitism policy and funding, a mid-year review or year-end update in 2026 would help assess whether measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents and progressive Holocaust-memory restoration efforts materialize across targeted regions.
Update · Feb 12, 2026, 02:00 AMin_progress
Restating the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: On
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (January 27, 2026), the State Department issued a formal statement reaffirming this commitment, including language that the
U.S. will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The statement also highlights ongoing U.S. governance structures related to Holocaust issues, such as the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues, indicating a continued institutional framework for these goals.
Current status and completion prospects: There are no published, verifiable milestones or metrics showing measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally or concrete reparative actions for Holocaust survivors and heirs within a specific timeline. The completion condition requires demonstrable, measurable progress, which is not evidenced in the available official materials to date; the available materials reflect policy position and ongoing institutional capacity rather than completed actions.
Reliability and context: The primary source is the U.S. Department of State, an official government communications channel, which supports the stated pledge but does not itself provide independent verification of impact. Given the absence of quantifiable outcomes or deadlines, the claim remains an ongoing policy objective rather than a completed program. The framing in other outlets aligns with the official statement, but the State Department brief is the authoritative basis for the claim here.

Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The State Department reaffirmed this commitment in a January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement, explicitly saying the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory (State Department, 2026-01-27).
Ongoing policy framework: The Department notes continued use of the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) and related bureaus to advance Holocaust remembrance, assets restitution, and anti-antisemitism efforts, with SEHI’s mandate dating to 1999 and ongoing activity through 2025–2026 per State Department materials (State Dept, About
Us; SEHI resources).
Concrete milestones and indicators: Publicly available statements emphasize annual Holocaust remembrance programming, support for survivors and heirs, and international cooperation to combat antisemitism, alongside efforts to preserve Holocaust memory through education and commemoration initiatives. However, no single, universally verifiable completion metric exists in the public record; progress is described as ongoing policy implementation and diplomatic engagement (State Dept, 2026-01-27; SEHI resources).
Source reliability and caveats: The primary source is an official State Department release, which is authoritative for
U.S. policy intentions but provides limited independent verification of measurable outcomes. Complementary reporting from reputable outlets corroborates the administration’s framing of the commitment, but independent data on antisemitic incidents or restitution progress remains variable and country-specific (State Dept 2026-01-27; reputable summaries of the statement).
Notes on incentives and policy dynamics: The incentive structure—U.S. diplomatic credibility, support for Holocaust survivors, and international leadership on antisemitism—drives continued funding and intergovernmental collaboration. Policy moves are described as ongoing rather than a one-time action, consistent with the absence of a fixed completion date and the multi-year nature of restitution, remembrance, and anti-antisemitism work (State Dept 2026-01-27; SEHI context).
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 09:12 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Public
U.S. actions publicly aligned with this promise include established interagency efforts and international frameworks to counter antisemitism and address Holocaust-era issues, though progress is uneven across contexts and scales.
Evidence of progress includes the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, launched in 2024 and endorsed by the United States and dozens of states and organizations, which provide a non-binding, whole-of-society framework for monitoring and responding to antisemitism (State Dept page on guidelines, endorsements as of 2025). The U.S. maintains the annual, nonbinding JUST Act reporting process to track how countries implement the
Prague/Prague-era commitments on restitution and remembrance (State Dept JUST Act reports), indicating ongoing enforcement and accountability rather than a single completed package.
Concrete milestones related to survivors’ restitution and memory preservation exist but are not universal or fully complete. The JUST Act documents progress and remaining gaps in 46 countries’ implementation of the Terezin Declaration commitments, highlighting continued legislative and administrative work, not a total fulfillment of compensation or archival access in every case (JUST Act Report summary). Separately, the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (2023) and related fact sheets push for increased awareness, education, and enforcement, but do not by themselves guarantee broad, verifiable reductions in antisemitic incidents worldwide.
The reliability and balance of sources include U.S. government primary materials (State Department speeches, guidelines, and JUST Act reports) and recognized outlines of the national strategy to counter antisemitism. These documents show clear policy intent and ongoing administrative work, while also illustrating that measurable, universal reductions in antisemitism incidents and universal restitution for survivors remain uneven and jurisdiction-dependent. Overall, the evidence supports continued U.S. action but does not indicate complete fulfillment of the stated completion condition.
Given the above, the claim is best characterized as in_progress: policy frameworks and official reporting mechanisms exist and are being implemented, yet substantial progress toward universal, measurable reductions in antisemitism, universal reparative justice for survivors and heirs, and comprehensive preservation/education outcomes remains incomplete and variable by country and sector.

Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department reaffirmed this commitment in its
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement dated January 27, 2026, explicitly asserting that the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory (State Dept, 2026-01-27).
Ongoing actions and milestones: The JUST Act continues to guide
U.S. efforts to pursue restitution or compensation for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and the broader U.S. framework for Holocaust remembrance, education, and memory has been repeatedly reaffirmed in official reporting and diplomatic channels (State Dept, JUST Act Report to Congress). While these measures establish policy and funding intentions, publicly verifiable, across-the-board reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally and definitive legal remedies for all survivors remain incomplete, with progress uneven by region (State Dept, 2023–2025 reports; 2026 statement).
Reliability and conclusion: Official U.S. government statements and reports indicate continued policy emphasis on countering antisemitism, providing reparative avenues where possible, and maintaining Holocaust memory initiatives. However, there is no single, externally verifiable completion milestone or date, and measurable worldwide reductions in antisemitic incidents are not publicly documented as achieved to date. Given these factors, the status is best characterized as in_progress, with ongoing efforts expected to continue beyond 2026 (State Dept, JUST Act Report; 2026-01-27 statement).

Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department reiterated this commitment in its
International Holocaust Remembrance Day release dated January 27, 2026, signaling ongoing official emphasis on combating antisemitism, supporting survivors and heirs, and preserving
Holocaust memory (State Dept, 2026-01-27). In addition, the framework for this work is anchored in the broader U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (May 2023), which outlines a whole-of-government approach to reducing antisemitism and enhancing Holocaust education and remembrance (White House/Biden administration archives; Justice Department resources).
Status of completion: There is no reported completion date or exit condition. The policy is described as ongoing and evolving, with continued agency actions, public statements, and programmatic efforts across government departments. Concrete milestones or measurable endpoint dates are not publicly published in the cited sources, though multiple pillars of the national strategy imply sustained progress over time.
Dates and milestones: The January 2026 statement aligns with recurring commemorations of International Holocaust Remembrance Day, and the 2023 National Strategy establishes long-term objectives and actions across agencies. Key milestones would include measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents, expanded legal/remedial avenues for survivors and heirs, and documented preservation/education programs, but such metrics and dates are not enumerated in the provided sources.
Source reliability note: Primary sources are official
U.S. government statements (State Department release) and the federally produced National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, which are authoritative for policy direction. Secondary reporting corroborates the existence of the 2026 statement, but detailed progress metrics remain scarce in publicly available official summaries.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 03:13 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. This was explicitly echoed in the State Department’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day message on January 27, 2026, reaffirming ongoing
U.S. commitments in these areas (State Dept, 2026-01-27). The administration frames this as a continuing policy rather than a one-off action, anchored in longstanding offices such as the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) and the Claims Conference framework (State Dept SEHI overview, 2025).
Evidence of progress includes continued U.S. diplomatic messaging against antisemitism, support for Holocaust education and commemoration, and ongoing work with Holocaust restitution efforts led by SEHI in coordination with the Claims Conference and World Jewish Restitution Organization (State Dept SEHI overview, 2025; State Dept press materials, 2026). The January 2026 statement foregrounds countering antisemitism globally and defending memory as core policy, rather than citing a quantified reduction in antisemitic incidents or a fixed completion milestone (State Dept, 2026-01-27).
There is no publicly available, independently verifiable milestone graph showing a measurable decline in antisemitic incidents worldwide attributable to U.S. policy by February 11, 2026. Nor is there a documented, completed reparations package or a finalized, universal mechanism for Holocaust survivors and heirs that the administration has publicly announced as completed. Instead, the evidence points to ongoing programmatic activity, diplomatic engagement, and restitution efforts that are described as persistent rather than concluded (State Dept SEHI overview, 2025; official press releases, 2026).
Key dates and milestones include the 1999 establishment of SEHI and its ongoing mandate to pursue asset restitution, survivor justice, and Holocaust memory preservation, plus the January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements reiterating these commitments (State Dept SEHI overview, 2025; State Dept press release, 2026-01-27). While these indicate policy continuity and emphasis, they do not enumerate concrete, universally achieved outcomes or a projected completion date for fulfilling the claim in full (State Dept, 2025–2026).
Reliability note: the principal sources are official U.S. government releases and SEHI information, which provide authoritative statements of policy and ongoing activities but rarely publish independent metrics on antisemitism reductions or survivor restitution totals in a single place. Where possible, the report relies on the State Department’s own wording and mission framing to assess progress (State Dept pages, 2025–2026).
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 01:47 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The State Department issued a formal
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement on January 27, 2026 reiterating the pledge to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The statement aligns with ongoing
Holocaust Issues programs and related diplomatic channels.
Current status vs. completion: No publicly released, independently verifiable metrics show measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally, concrete reparative remedies, or quantified preservation/education milestones. The language remains aspirational and framed around ongoing actions rather than a completed package.
Milestones and dates: The principal milestone cited is the January 27, 2026 State Department press release marking International Holocaust Remembrance Day. Additional related materials reference the broader framework of
U.S. government Holocaust initiatives, but do not publish specific performance targets or timelines.
Source reliability: The central evidence comes from an official U.S. Department of State press release (Office of the Spokesperson), which is a primary source for the stated commitment. Publicly available metrics or independent verification are not present in the cited materials, so the assessment remains cautious and focused on ongoing efforts rather than completion.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 11:49 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The State Department reaffirmed this commitment in a January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement, framing it as part of a broader pledge to counter antisemitism worldwide and defend Holocaust memory (State Department release, 2026-01-27). The commitment is also embedded in the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (May 2023), which outlines a broad, whole-of-government set of actions. Additional signals come from subsequent funding discussions and policy briefs linked to anti-hate and Holocaust issues, including 2026 budget considerations that reference antisemitism and related advocacy.
Completion status: There is clear policy intent and ongoing actions, but no published, verifiable metric or milestone showing a reduction in antisemitic incidents worldwide, reparative remedies for survivors/heirs, or documented preservation/education outcomes with a defined completion date. The completion condition—measurable incident reductions, legal/reparative remedies, and preservation/education milestones—remains unmet in a verifiable, consolidated way as of now.
Key dates and milestones: May 2023 saw the launch of the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, with hundreds of actions across agencies aimed at countering antisemitism. January 27, 2026 featured the State Department’s commemorative statement committing to the three-part objective. Ongoing fiscal year planning in 2026 also references anti-hate and antisemitism concerns. These reflect policy groundwork and intent rather than finished, independently verifiable outcomes.
Source reliability and constraints: The most direct source for the stated pledge is the U.S. State Department’s January 2026 International Holocaust Remembrance Day release, an official government document. Supporting context comes from the White House/administration documents on the national antisemitism strategy (2023) and subsequent
U.S. government funding discourse. While these sources establish intent and structure, they do not yet provide audited progress metrics.
Overall assessment: The claim is actively backed by formal policy frameworks and ongoing government actions, but progress toward measurable completion remains unverified at this time. The status is best characterized as in_progress, awaiting concrete, independently verifiable outcomes.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 09:36 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim: The claim asserts that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress exists in
US official statements and programs. The State Department reaffirmed this commitment in its
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026 remarks, underscoring ongoing counter-antisemitism efforts, survivor justice, and Holocaust memory preservation (State Department, Jan 27, 2026).
There is also a long-running framework that underpins current activity: the JUST Act and its reporting requirement, which continues to guide
U.S. government engagement on restitution, archives access, education, and Holocaust remembrance across endorsed countries (JUST Act Report, updated through 2020; State.gov). The Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and related units remain active in promoting education, research, and policy coordination.
Milestones and dates of note include the 2020 JUST Act report covering 46 countries and ongoing archival, provenance, and education initiatives linked to IHRA and related standards. The current 2026 statement reiterates these priorities without signaling a fixed completion date, indicating continued policy emphasis rather than a completed fix.
Source reliability and limitations: The primary sources are official State Department statements and reports, which reflect policy intent and ongoing programs but do not provide independent, third-party verification of reductions in antisemitic incidents or quantified progress for all survivor restitution cases worldwide. When possible, these sources should be complemented with independent academic or NGO assessments for a fuller picture of impact.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 05:29 AMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department reaffirmed the core vow on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026, confirming the commitment to counter antisemitism globally and defend Holocaust memory (State Dept release, 2026-01-27). The administration has also formalized a Global Guidelines framework to counter antisemitism, first launched in 2024 and endorsed by multiple countries and international bodies, reflecting ongoing international coordination (State Dept, Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism). Separately, the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, released in 2023, remains a foundational policy document guiding a whole-of-government approach to reduce antisemitic activity and promote
Jewish heritage.
Status of completion: There is clear evidence of sustained policy development and international collaboration, but no public, verifiable endpoint showing a universal, measurable reduction in antisemitic incidents worldwide. The completion condition requires demonstrable reductions in incidents, reparative remedies for survivors and heirs, and preserved Holocaust memory education; while actions exist, they are ongoing, with milestones spread over years and across agencies (NATSTRAT 2023; State Dept 2024–2026 guidelines). Thus, the claim is best characterized as continuing progress rather than finished.
Dates and milestones: January 27, 2026 marks reaffirmation of the pledge in an official statement. July 2024 saw the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism adopted in coordination with international partners, with ongoing endorsements through 2025. The U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (May 2023) remains the foundational framework for subsequent actions and interagency efforts (Justice Department hate crimes resources and State Department pages reference it). These milestones indicate sustained, incremental progress rather than a completed program.
Reliability and context: Primary sources are official
U.S. government communications (State Department pages and White House archival materials), which provide direct statements of policy and framework documents. The Global Guidelines and National Strategy are widely cited within U.S. policy filings and are reinforced by interagency engagement; however, independent verification of global incident reductions remains limited and often depends on third-party data from civil society groups. Given the incentives of the speaker and outlets (policy promotion and memory preservation), the sources are credible for outlining ongoing commitments rather than delivering final outcomes.
Overall assessment: The United States is actively pursuing the commitments in the claim through formal strategies, international guidelines, and commemorative diplomacy, with measurable results expected over time. At present, progress is real and ongoing, but the specified completion condition—verifiable, international reductions in antisemitic incidents and legal/reparative remedies—has not yet been publicly achieved. Continued monitoring of State Department updates and independent incident data will be essential to assess future fulfillment.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 03:15 AMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The State Department’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026 statement reiterates the pledge to counter antisemitism globally, support survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory (State Dept press release, 2026-01-27). There is no public, verifiable completion of a global, measurable reduction in antisemitic incidents or a uniformly quantified set of reparative actions for survivors and heirs as of today (State Dept release outlines commitments but does not certify a completed program with metrics). Evidence of progress exists mainly in policy frameworks and public messaging, including the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (2023) and ongoing departmental efforts to engage international partners, educate the public, and support Holocaust remembrance initiatives (Biden White House archives, 2023; State Dept materials).
Ongoing progress and milestones: The
U.S. has articulated a whole-of-society approach through the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, with pillars on education, policy coordination, and civil rights, and has continued to publish statements and host or participate in remembrance events that emphasize memory preservation and education (U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, 2023; State Department materials). Independent assessments of antisemitic incidents globally show mixed progress: some countries report rising or fluctuating incident counts, while others see modest declines or variable trends, underscoring that broad, international reductions are not yet demonstrated in a single metric (ADL J7 Annual Report on Antisemitism 2025; Tel Aviv University/ADL antisemitism reports 2024). These external datasets indicate that while policy instruments exist, measurable, worldwide reductions in antisemitic incidents have not been uniformly realized (ADL J7 2025; TAU/ADL 2024).
Current status and reliability of sources: The primary claim’s framing relies on official U.S. policy statements and strategic documents, which establish intent and ongoing programs but stop short of providing verifiable, international incident-reduction metrics or comprehensive reparative remedies with quantified outcomes (State Dept, 2026; Biden White House archives, 2023). Independent research and annual antisemitism reports confirm continuing global challenges and near-term progress in policy rhetoric but show no single, complete milestone that satisfies the completion condition. Given the divergence between ambitious policy aims and the complex, data-driven reality of antisemitism trends, the claim remains in_progress rather than complete or failed (ADL/J7 2025; TAU 2024).
Notes on dates and next steps: The State Department statement from January 27, 2026, reinforces the commitment but does not provide a concrete completion date or a quantified plan for universal antisemitism reduction or survivor reparations. A meaningful follow-up would track the adoption and impact of specific U.S. and international measures linked to the National Strategy (e.g., funding allocations, education programs, legal remedies for survivors/Heirs) and any published global antisemitism incident data with clear baselines and targets (State Dept pages; NIH/academic collations). Follow-up date suggestion: 2026-12-31 to assess annual progress against announced commitments and any new measurable milestones.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 02:26 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The
U.S. reaffirmed this stance in 2026, including a State Department press statement on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day that reiterates the commitment to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory (State Dept, Jan 27, 2026). The Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism (SEAS) remains the designated mechanism for global antisemitism policy, with a confirmed envoy position established in late 2025 (State Dept bio for Yehuda Kaploun; Dec 18, 2025 Senate confirmation). The actions align with the previously published U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (2023), which laid out a whole-of-government approach to reduce antisemitic incidents and strengthen Holocaust education and memory.
What progress exists toward completion: There are concrete institutional steps (establishment and staffing of SEAS, annual commemorations, and public policy guidelines) that support ongoing anti-antisemitism work and Holocaust-memory initiatives. However, there is no publicly disclosed, independently verifiable metric showing a sustained, worldwide reduction in antisemitic incidents or a completed set of reparative/remembrance actions across all contexts to meet the completion condition. The claim has compounds of policy design, diplomatic action, and commemorative effort that are being implemented rather than fully completed.
Dates and milestones: December 18, 2025 – Senate confirms Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun as Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism. January 27, 2026 – State Department reiterates commitment in International Holocaust Remembrance Day remarks. These establish ongoing leadership and public commitment but do not by themselves demonstrate measurable incident reduction or universal reparative remedies.
Reliability note: The primary sources are official U.S. government communications (State Department press releases and personnel biographies), which provide authoritative statements of policy and staffing. Independent accountability would require third-party incident data and independent audits of implementation across regions, which are not consistently disclosed in public government briefings. Given the aligned official statements and sustained policy framework, the reporting can be considered credible, albeit progress signals are incremental and not yet verifiable as complete.
Follow-up: Monitor annual State Department updates on antisemitism counters, SEAS activities, and Holocaust-memory programs, with particular attention to any newly published metrics or reparative actions for Holocaust survivors and heirs.
Update · Feb 11, 2026, 12:02 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence of ongoing policy effort includes formal statements from the State Department on International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026) reaffirming the
U.S. commitment to counter antisemitism, support Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory (State Department press release). Separately, the United States maintains active mechanisms on Holocaust-era restitution and remembrance through the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues, the ITF, and the IHRA framework, with the JUST Act reporting process periodically evaluating progress across countries that endorsed the Terezin Declaration (JUST Act Report, 2020). These channels collectively indicate continued policy development, reporting, and advocacy rather than a single, finite completion.
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 10:03 PMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States commits to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory, as stated in the January 27, 2026 State Department release on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day. The message frames these goals as ongoing
U.S. policy priorities rather than discrete, completed actions. It anchors the stance in a broad, enduring diplomatic posture rather than a single legislative package.
Evidence of progress: The State Department has publicly reaffirmed these commitments in 2026 remarks and related materials (State Department press statement, January 27, 2026). In tandem, the department continues to publish and update the JUST Act Report framework and country-progress materials that track restitution, archival access, education, and remembrance efforts (JUST Act Report, ongoing updates). These documents document sustained government attention to restitution, Holocaust education, and
anti-Semitism monitoring as core functions of U.S. policy.
Evidence of completion, in progress, or gaps: There is no single completion date or milestone that would mark full completion of the claim. The JUST Act Report highlights uneven progress across countries in implementing restitution and education programs, indicating continued work is needed internationally. Meanwhile, U.S. actions—such as public commitments, Holocaust remembrance outreach, and support for education and archival access—continue to evolve without a finalized end point.
Dates and milestones: The international remembrance statement is dated January 27, 2026. The JUST Act framework, which informs accountability for restitution and education, has operative findings that were developed and updated through 2020 and continue to be referenced in 2026 communications. Specific country progress varies, with some nations advancing restitution laws and memorial practices, while others lag, according to the latest JUST Act material.
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 08:17 PMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The January 27, 2026 State Department statement reiterates this pledge as an ongoing policy priority tied to
International Holocaust Remembrance Day. It signals the
U.S. intent to pursue antisemitism countermeasures, survivor justice, and memory preservation as long‑standing commitments.
Evidence of progress: The State Department’s public stance is supported by a continuing framework through the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI), which oversees policy on Holocaust-era asset restitution, compensation for Nazi‑era wrongs, and memory education. The SEHI and related bureaus publish policy documents and topic guidance that shape U.S. actions in these areas (e.g., resource documents and topic briefs updated through 2024–2025). These efforts indicate institutional work toward the stated goals, even if they do not yet produce quantified incident reductions or legal remedies on a global scale.
What is completed vs. in progress: There are no publicly announced, standalone “completion” milestones showing universal reductions in antisemitic incidents or comprehensive global reparations for survivors and heirs. The record instead reflects ongoing policy development, дипломат engagement, and programmatic activity (education, commemoration, and asset restitution initiatives) typical of a multi‑year effort. The absence of a fixed completion date aligns with the nature of such advocacy and policy implementation.
Dates and milestones: The source statement was issued on January 27, 2026, in connection with International Holocaust Remembrance Day. The Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues maintains active documentation and guidance (with updates through 2024–2025) on Holocaust education, remembrance, and restitution policy, illustrating continued momentum. These elements establish a trajectory rather than a closed‑loop completion.
Reliability and context of sources: The primary source is the U.S. State Department, explicitly articulating the policy stance quoted in the claim. Supplemental context comes from State Department pages describing SEHI’s mission and activities. These are official government sources, which are appropriate for assessing U.S. policy commitments, though they reflect stated aims rather than independent verification of outcomes.
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 05:14 PMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The claim is anchored in a January 27, 2026 State Department release linked to
International Holocaust Remembrance Day, which pledges ongoing
U.S. counteraction to antisemitism, support for survivors and heirs, and defense of Holocaust memory. The public commitment is clearly stated, but concrete, independently verifiable progress remains to be demonstrated beyond rhetoric and ceremonial statements.
What is promised and evidence: The claim is supported by official statements surrounding International Holocaust Remembrance Day (State Department release, 2026-01-27). The primary public evidence is the reiteration of policy stance in official remarks and statements, with corroboration in secondary reporting.
Current status: There is no publicly verified, institutionally measurable progress reported in the issuing documents to date (e.g., quantified declines in antisemitic incidents abroad, or documented reparative actions for Holocaust survivors and heirs). The available material signals intent and continuing commitment rather than completed measures.
Milestones and dates: The key milestone is the 2026-01-27 release date for International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements. No further concrete milestones (e.g., funded programs, legal remedies, or formal education/preservation initiatives with measurable targets) are specified in the cited materials.
Reliability and incentives: Primary sources are official State Department communications and embassy statements, which are appropriate for asserting the U.S. stance. Coverage from secondary outlets corroborates the phrasing but remains downstream reporting; the most authoritative basis remains the official State Department release. Without publicly disclosed measurable actions or funding, the claim remains aspirational rather than completed.
Incentives and interpretation: While the statements reflect policy intent consistent with U.S. diplomacy, there is limited public evidence of how incentives (e.g., funding allocations, legal remedies, or education/education-education initiatives) have shifted to produce measurable reductions in antisemitism or tangible reparative outcomes for survivors and heirs.
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 03:15 PMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States pledges to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence of progress: The State Department issued a formal statement on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day reiterating this commitment, signaling ongoing diplomatic and public messaging rather than a discrete completion milestone. Context: There is no publicly documented, independently verifiable completion date or fully measurable set of actions tied to this pledge in the available sources.
Progress indicators: The public record shows continued emphasis in
U.S. diplomacy and official remarks around
Holocaust remembrance and combating antisemitism, including the cited State Department statement and related official channels. However, concrete, completed policies, funding allocations, or legal remedies with quantifiable antisemitism-reduction metrics are not publicly detailed in the sources consulted.
Ambiguities and reliability: The primary source is an official State Department press statement dated 2026-01-27, which confirms intent but does not quantify impact or timelines. Independent corroboration of measurable outcomes (e.g., antisemitism incident reductions, survivor reparations, or education/preservation programs with defined milestones) is not evident in the materials reviewed.
Reliability note: State Department releases are authoritative for official policy stance, but translating rhetoric into verifiable progress requires additional data from U.S. agencies, NGO reporting, or independent audits. The present evidence supports a stated priority rather than a completed program with transparent milestones.

Restating the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The January 27, 2026 State Department statement anchors this as a policy stance rather than a finished program.
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 12:06 PMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of ongoing progress: Public
U.S. government statements on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day reaffirm the pledge to counter antisemitism, support justice for survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory (State Department and White House statements, Jan 2026). The administration also references existing structures such as the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and related bureaus to coordinate policy and messaging.
Status of completion: There are no publicly disclosed, independently verifiable metrics showing a reduction in antisemitic incidents worldwide or new legal/remedial remedies specifically enacted in direct response to this pledge. Public materials describe commitments and ongoing programs, but do not confirm completion of measurable milestones. Progress appears to be ongoing policy work and commemorative/educational efforts rather than a completed program.
Dates and milestones: The key reference is the January 27, 2026 International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements from State Department and White House, which reiterate the commitment. No explicit completion date or quantified targets are published in available material. Reliability note: Primary sources (State Department and White House) provide official articulation of policy intention; external outlets largely summarize or echo these statements rather than provide independent verification of outcomes.
Follow-up and reliability: Given the absence of published, outcome-based metrics, a formal follow-up should monitor (a) any new anti-antisemitism initiatives with measurable incident-reduction goals, (b) any reparative/legal actions for Holocaust survivors/heirs, and (c) documented education/preservation programs with evaluated impact. A review on or after 2026-12-31 would help determine whether the completion condition remains unmet or has progressed to completion.

Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress includes official statements reaffirming these commitments, notably on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026) where the State Department reiterated the pledge to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory integrity. The Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) continues to develop and implement
U.S. policy on restitution, remembrance, and education, and engages in multilateral fora (IHRA, Arolsen Archives).
Concrete milestones remain limited in publicly published form: ongoing restitution efforts, education, and commemoration are pursued, but a public set of measurable anti-Semitism reductions or a formal completion timeline has not been issued. The JUST Act reporting framework and SEHI's work underpin progress, but do not yield a single completion date.
Overall reliability rests on official State Department materials, which are authoritative for policy statements and program designs; independent assessments of antisemitism trends and restitution progress vary and should be consulted alongside official sources for a balanced view.
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 05:27 AMin_progress
Restated claim and scope: The State Department statement from
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026 asserts that
the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The completion condition envisions measurable progress such as reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally, restitution or reparations for survivors and heirs, and robust education/archival efforts to preserve Holocaust memory. There is no single projected completion date, reflecting a continuing policy mandate rather than a finite program. The claim thus maps to ongoing
U.S. diplomacy and policy work rather than a completed project.
Evidence of progress to date: The State Department has formalized a continuing commitment through public statements and policy instruments, including a 2026 press statement reiterating the three-pronged pledge (counter antisemitism, justice for survivors/ heirs, memory integrity) (State Dept release, 2026-01-27). Independent reporting highlights related accountability mechanisms such as the Justice for Uncompensated Survivors Today (JUST) Act, which requires periodic reporting on restitution progress and best practices for Holocaust-era assets (State Dept JUST Act Report, 2020; ongoing policy discussion). These elements indicate institutional traction, even if they do not constitute a discrete, finite completion.
Current status of the promised actions: Countering antisemitism worldwide remains an ongoing diplomatic priority, with intergovernmental coordination and public diplomacy efforts cited in State Department materials and IHRA-aligned education initiatives. Justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs is advanced through restitution frameworks and legal pathways (e.g., property restitution discussions and JUST Act reporting), but progress is uneven across countries and property categories. Preservation and education efforts to defend Holocaust memory are supported by archival access, provenance research, and educational guidelines promoted by U.S. and partner institutions.
Dates, milestones, and milestones to watch: The 2026 messaging provides a continuing baseline rather than a fixed milestone. Ongoing milestones include regular JUST Act reporting, continued engagement with countries on restitution laws, and support for Holocaust education and archives access. Concrete, verifiable milestones—such as specific antisemitism incident reductions or settlements—are not enumerated in the public materials reviewed.
Reliability and caveats on sources: The primary source is the U.S. State Department, which formally articulates the policy stance in an official release (State Dept, 2026-01-27). Supplemental context comes from the JUST Act Report, which outlines restitution progress and best practices across 46 countries. While authoritative, progress is uneven and often depends on partner governments, making a fixed end-state unlikely.
Update · Feb 10, 2026, 04:44 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: On
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026, the State Department reiterated the commitment with a formal statement that the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. This aligns with ongoing
Holocaust issues work and public messaging from the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues, as reflected in the official State Department release dated 2026-01-27.
Assessment of completion: There is no public, verifiable completion of measurable outcomes (e.g., a documented reduction in antisemitic incidents internationally, enacted reparations or legal remedies for survivors/heirs, or quantified preservation/education milestones) within the cited material. The available sources reflect policy statements and framework, not final metrics or completed actions.
Context and reliability: The message sits within established
U.S. policy streams including the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism and the work of the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues. Related developments, such as funding and legislative actions referenced in 2025–2026 reporting, indicate ongoing implementation rather than finalization. Public sources include the State Department release (2026-01-27) and coverage noting related policy activity from credible outlets and official channels.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 11:24 PMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The
U.S. has formalized ongoing policy efforts, including the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (2023) and the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism (2024), plus a 2026 State Department statement on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day reaffirming the pledge and related initiatives.
Status of completion: No fixed completion date exists; actions are described as long-term programs with milestones tied to reporting, evaluations, and interagency actions, indicating continued progress rather than final completion.
Reliability and context: Primary government sources (State Department, DOJ/Hate Crimes) and policy analyses (RAND) support a structured, multi-year effort with overseas and remembrance components, suggesting steady but non-final progress toward the stated aims.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 09:30 PMin_progress
The claim restates a
U.S. pledge: to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The clearest public articulation of this commitment is a January 27, 2026 State Department press statement on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day, which explicitly repeats that pledge (State Department, Jan 27, 2026). The statement frames the pledge as part of ongoing U.S. diplomacy and memory-work, but it does not enumerate specific, verifiable policy actions with measurable milestones at the time of publication.
As for progress toward measurable outcomes, there is no public, independently verifiable set of actions or milestones released by the U.S. government in the weeks following the statement. Public reporting from credible outlets or official agencies has not documented concrete antisemitism-reduction metrics, survivor reparative measures, or defined preservation/education programs tied to an explicit completion date (State Department statement as the primary source).
The strongest corroboration of the administration’s intent comes from related, broader international recall and remembrance efforts, such as UN programs and other countries’ statements, which emphasize education, remembrance, and prevention of antisemitism (UN coverage). However, these do not constitute U.S.-specific, independently verifiable progress toward the stated completion condition.
Reliability assessment: the State Department’s January 2026 release is a primary source for the pledge, but it lacks published, concrete milestones or timelines to verify progress. Any assessment of “completion” must await subsequent, independently verifiable policy actions or data demonstrating reductions in antisemitic incidents, reparative measures for survivors/heirs, and documented preservation/education outcomes (State Dept. press statement; UN coverage).
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 07:50 PMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The State Department publicly reaffirmed this commitment on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (January 27, 2026), framing it as a standing policy goal rather than a discrete, time-bound program with specific milestones. There is no publicly disclosed completion date or a defined set of measurable, international antisemitism-reduction targets tied to this pledge. Overall, the promise remains at the symbolic/policy-statement level rather than a completed, catalogued set of actions with verifiable outcomes.
What progress exists: The administration continues to emphasize
Holocaust memory, survivor justice, and anti‑antisemitism work through offices such as the Office of Holocaust Issues and related state/agency statements. The January 2026 State Department release positions these aims as ongoing priorities rather than a resolved package of reforms or reparations. Outside the department, multiple governments and NGOs document rising antisemitic incidents globally, underscoring the ongoing challenge (contextual reference: ADL 2025 global trends). However, these documents describe the landscape rather than concrete U.S.-led progress metrics tied to the pledge.
Evidence of completion, progress, or failure: There is no independently verifiable evidence that antisemitic incidents have been measurably reduced worldwide due to
U.S. actions; no announced reparative measures for Holocaust survivors or heirs are publicly attributed to this specific pledge; and no formal milestones or timelines have been published to demonstrate completion. The best available public signals are statements of principle and continuing programmatic presence (e.g., Holocaust Issues Office, Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues, and related policy statements). Given the absence of explicit, checkable milestones, the status remains “in_progress” rather than “complete.”
Dates and milestones: The principal dated reference is the 2026 International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement (January 27, 2026). There are no additional, independent milestones publicly linked to the exact completion condition in the sources consulted. For transparency, ongoing antisemitism monitoring (e.g., ADL annual/global trend reports) provides external context but not a Commissioned-for-in-U.S.-specific metric set.
Reliability note: The core claim originates from an official State Department press release, which is a primary, authoritative source for U.S. policy statements. When placed in a broader context, independent organizations such as the ADL offer credible data on antisemitism trends, but their materials describe the environment rather than a confirmed set of U.S.-driven completion milestones. Taken together, the sources support the existence of a continuing U.S. commitment, but not a proven, finished program with public, measurable outcomes yet.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 05:11 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Publicly available
U.S. policy documents show a structured, ongoing framework to address antisemitism through a whole-of-government approach, including the 2023 National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism and the 2024 Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism. These elements establish aims, pillars, and mechanisms, but do not by themselves report a single, globally verified reduction in antisemitic incidents to date.
Evidence of progress includes formal guidance and policy coordination actions: the Global Guidelines (Buenos Aires 2024) have been endorsed by multiple governments and the United States, with ongoing updates and endorsements as of late 2025. The U.S. Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism maintains the framework and public-facing materials, illustrating sustained government commitment rather than a closed completion. Additionally, the White House announced further measures to combat antisemitism in 2025, signaling continued policy evolution rather than finalization.
There is no public, authoritative completion report showing a definitive end-state (complete) for reducing antisemitic incidents worldwide or for restitution/education milestones related to Holocaust memory. Instead, the record indicates an ongoing, multi-pillar program: monitoring and data collection; enforcement of hate-crime laws; Holocaust education and memory preservation; and intergovernmental coordination. The pace and scope of implementation vary by country and context, and independent verification of impact remains limited in available public sources.
Notes on reliability: sources include the U.S. Department of State pages on countering antisemitism and the Global Guidelines endorsed by dozens of countries (State.gov), the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (Justice.gov and WhiteHouse archives), and White House actions (Presidential Actions). These are official government documents or statements, providing a credible picture of policy structure and ongoing efforts, though they offer limited quantitative impact data on incident reductions. Given the incentives of officials and institutions to emphasize commitment, independent, third-party assessments would be necessary to gauge true progress over time.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 03:06 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. This pledge is anchored in a January 27, 2026 State Department statement issued for
International Holocaust Remembrance Day, which explicitly reiterates that commitment (State Department, 2026-01-27).
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 01:34 PMin_progress
What the claim states:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress or movement: The State Department issued a January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement reaffirming that commitment, explicitly noting that the United States will “always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.” The same department’s Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) exists to advance restitution, remembrance, and education efforts, and it coordinates with international bodies (e.g., IHRA) and partner governments on related policies and commemorations.
What is completed vs. in progress: The remarks demonstrate ongoing policy stance and diplomatic activity, including leadership by SEHI and continued observances (e.g., International Holocaust Remembrance Day, Days of Remembrance) and advocacy on restitution and education. There is no publicly announced completion date or discrete, measurable milestone in the sources provided that would mark final achievement of the broad pledge.
Dates and milestones: The cited State Department release is dated January 27, 2026. SEHI’s activities include engagement with international bodies, support for Holocaust education and restitution initiatives, and annual observances, but specific future targets or deadlines are not listed in the sources we consulted.
Reliability and context: The primary sources are official
U.S. government communications (State Department press release and SEHI pages), which are authoritative for statements of policy and the office’s mandate. While these establish intent and ongoing programs, they do not provide independent verification of reductions in antisemitic incidents or quantified progress on survivor restitution beyond annual reports and commemorations.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 11:47 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. It also implies ongoing, measurable progress toward reducing antisemitic incidents, delivering reparative remedies for survivors and heirs, and supporting education and preservation efforts for Holocaust memory.
Evidence exists that the
U.S. government has committed to these aims and is pursuing related policies. The State Department released an International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement on Jan 27, 2026, reaffirming that “The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.” This signals high-level policy emphasis and alignment with ongoing U.S. advocacy against antisemitism (State Dept, official release).
Additionally, U.S. policy tools related to these aims are publicly articulated through frameworks such as the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, which the State Department and related offices have highlighted as part of a broader international engagement to curb antisemitism (State Dept, Global Guidelines page). The JUST Act reports and related congressional-oversight materials also emphasize accountability and measures toward justice for victims and heirs and toward honoring commitments from the Terezin Declaration, providing a mechanism for tracking progress (State Dept, JUST Act reports).
Evidence of concrete progress includes formal commemorations and policy statements that frame antisemitism as a persistent, global issue and outline a multilateral, rights-based approach to Holocaust memory. The combination of anniversary statements, publicly available guidelines, and oversight reporting suggests ongoing policy activity and measurable efforts, though specific, universally agreed milestones (e.g., quantified reductions in incidents or reparative measures) are not detailed in the cited materials. Multiple reputable sources—State Department releases, international news coverage of the event, and human rights-focused institutions—lend credibility to the ongoing, policy-driven approach described by the administration.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 09:14 AMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: A January 27, 2026 State Department statement on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day explicitly affirms countering antisemitism worldwide, and defending Holocaust memory (State Dept, 2026-01-27). Separately, the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, launched in 2024 and endorsed by numerous countries and organizations, reflect ongoing
U.S. involvement in an international framework (State Dept, Global Guidelines page).
Milestones and scope: The Guidelines provide a policy framework with endorsements through 2025, illustrating sustained international coordination rather than a single completion date. The U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (2023) remains a foundational reference point, with subsequent policy work and legislation reinforcing these efforts (Justice.gov, White House materials cited by State).
Assessment of completion: There is clear ongoing policy activity and international cooperation aimed at reducing antisemitism and supporting Holocaust memory, but publicly verifiable, outcome-based milestones (eg, measurable incident reductions or survivor reparations) are not yet documented in independent sources. The evidence base relies on official statements and framework documents rather than audited outcomes.
Reliability note: The sources are official U.S. government communications (State Department pages and related justice/White House materials). They establish intent and framework but do not by themselves provide independent verification of impact; independent data would be needed for outcome confirmation.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 04:43 AMin_progress
Claim restatement: The State Department statement asserts that
the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: Official
U.S. actions cited include the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, launched in 2024 and endorsed by multiple countries and organizations, with ongoing updates and endorsements as of late 2025 (State Dept, Global Guidelines page). The January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day release reiterates the policy stance and links it to a broader, multi-agency effort (State Dept, International Holocaust Remembrance Day page).
Status of completion: There is no public, end-to-end completion metric or milestone showing a definitive reduction in international antisemitic incidents or reparative remedies codified into law. Policy language remains aspirational and framework-based, not a singular, verifiable end-state. The available sources describe ongoing programs, guidelines, and diplomacy rather than a completed, verifiable outcome (State Dept pages, 2024–2026).
Evidence of milestones and dates: 2024–2025: Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism released and endorsed; 2026: reaffirmation on International Holocaust Remembrance Day. Endorsements include multiple countries and organizations, with the U.S. listed among supporters (State Dept, Global Guidelines page).
Source reliability and incentives: Primary statements come from the U.S. State Department, a highly reliable official source for policy stances. Related materials emphasize a whole-of-society approach, international cooperation, and education as means to counter antisemitism and preserve Holocaust memory, aligning with stated incentives of U.S. government diplomacy and Holocaust-issues leadership (State Dept pages, 2024–2026).
Note on interpretation: Given the absence of concrete completion metrics or a clear end date, the claim is best understood as an enduring, policy-based commitment with measurable progress in the form of guidelines adoption and ongoing diplomatic efforts, rather than a discrete completed action.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 02:38 AMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The policy statements issued in 2026 reiterate this commitment as a core
U.S. objective, reflected in State Department releases on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day and a Presidential Message.
Evidence of progress: The U.S. has advanced an international framework to counter antisemitism via the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, launched in 2024 and endorsed by numerous countries and organizations. These guidelines, plus interagency Holocaust-issues work, indicate continued action and diplomatic alignment on the objectives.
Milestones and completion status: The existence of guidelines and commemorative statements shows forward movement, but there is no publicly documented, comprehensive set of global antisemitism incident reductions or universal reparative remedies for Holocaust survivors and heirs. The completion condition—measurable global incident reductions and reparative justice—has not been publicly achieved.
Memory and education commitments: Official statements and commemorations reinforce memory integrity and anti-antisemitism efforts, including modernizing education and memorial practices through government guidance and embassy programs. These efforts support, but do not by themselves verify, full completion of the stated goals.
Source reliability: Primary sources are U.S. government outlets (State Department pages, White House statements) offering official status updates and policy directions, though they do not provide an independent, global metric of success.
Overall assessment: The claim remains in_progress, with concrete international guidelines and commemorative actions in place, but lacking publicly verifiable evidence of global incident reductions or universal reparative remedies.
Update · Feb 09, 2026, 12:56 AMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The
U.S. has reiterated this commitment in 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements from the State Department and White House. The Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, launched in 2024 and endorsed by multiple countries and organizations, provide an international framework in which the U.S. participates.
Current status: These are ongoing policy efforts rather than a single completed action. Public statements and international guidelines indicate continued emphasis and collaboration, but there is no single metric showing universal reductions in antisemitic incidents or final reparative remedies beyond existing programs.
Milestones and reliability: Milestones include the 2024
Buenos Aires launch of Global Guidelines and 2025 measures to counter antisemitism, with official government communications grounding the effort. Reliability is anchored in U.S. government sources (State Department, White House), though independent incident data remains variable across nations.
Incentives and interpretation: The approach reflects leadership aims against antisemitism and to preserve Holocaust memory, consistent with broader human rights objectives. The lack of a fixed completion date indicates an ongoing policy program requiring periodic assessment of incidents, survivor reparations, and preservation/education funding.
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 11:10 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement (Jan 27, 2026) reiterates the pledge and links it to ongoing
U.S. policy and remembrance efforts. The Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) coordinates restitution, education, and remembrance with international partners, including IHRA engagement and dialogues with
Germany on asset restitution.
Status of completion: No discrete end date or single milestone marks completion. The policy is implemented through continual programs, annual ceremonies, restitution/ JUST Act reporting, and bilateral/multilateral diplomacy to combat antisemitism and preserve Holocaust memory.
Dates and milestones: The JUST Act framework has produced restitution and education actions across multiple countries, with ongoing SEHI work and 2026 commemorations anchoring continued effort rather than closure. SEHI’s activities emphasize return of assets, compensation, and historical remembrance in line with the 1999 establishment and subsequent updates.
Reliability note: Primary sources are U.S. government statements and SEHI pages, which provide authoritative policy statements and program descriptions. Supplementary coverage from reputable outlets aligns with these official sources but should be read as context rather than alternative policy claims.

U.S. policy posture tied to commemorations and moral commitments. The language presents these aims as enduring U.S. objectives rather than completed actions, with no single completion date or milestone specified.
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 04:44 PMin_progress
What the claim promises:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department reaffirmed this commitment in a January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day press release, framing it as a continuing
U.S. policy stance alongside memorial and educational activities (State Department press release, 2026-01-27).
Ongoing mechanisms and actions: The United States maintains the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI), which coordinates restitution, Holocaust education, and remembrance initiatives with international partners and works with related offices on
anti-Semitism and memorialization (State Department SEHI overview; SEHI activities page).
Progress toward completion and milestones: The claim’s completion condition—measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents globally, reparative remedies for survivors/heirs, and documented preservation/education efforts—has not been achieved in a single, verifiable milestone as of 2026-02-08. Instead, the policy frame appears to be ongoing, with periodic commemorations, international coordination, and policy advocacy continuing across years (State Department IHREM Day release; SEHI activities).
Reliability and incentives: The sources are official U.S. government communications (State Department releases and SEHI pages), which frame the policy as a long-term effort rather than a one-off action. This reflects the government’s institutional incentives to sustain international Holocaust memory, restitution efforts, and countering antisemitism through interagency and international diplomacy (State Department IHREM Day release; SEHI official pages).
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 02:54 PMin_progress
Claim restated:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence shows the commitment is pursued through ongoing official statements and institutional structures rather than a single completed program. On
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026), the State Department reaffirmed this stance in a press statement and reiterated ongoing
U.S. priorities to counter antisemitism, support survivors and heirs, and preserve Holocaust memory. The reliability of these sources rests on official government communications and policy framing. The commitment appears to be an ongoing policy posture rather than a one-off action plan.
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 01:06 PMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: On
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026, the State Department reaffirmed the pledge to counter antisemitism worldwide and defend Holocaust memory as part of a broader commemorative statement (State Department, 2026-01-27). The Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) continues to pursue restitution, compensation, and education initiatives, coordinating with international partners since its establishment in 1999 and led by Ellen Germain since 2021 (State Department SEHI overview).
Current status: There is no public record of a singular, verifiable global reduction in antisemitic incidents or a fully resolved set of Holocaust-era restitutions across all survivors and heirs. Instead, policy progress is incremental, featuring ongoing diplomacy, bilateral/multilateral negotiations, and education/remembrance activities that address components of the pledge (official releases and SEHI activities).
Milestones and reliability: Key elements include participation in multilateral fora (e.g., IHRA engagement) and adherence to restitution frameworks linked to the Terezin Declaration, the JUST Act reporting, and related
U.S. advocacy. While these indicate sustained, long-term effort, independent verification of comprehensive fulfillment remains outstanding; the sources are official government statements and program descriptions and are therefore reliable for understanding intent and policy design rather than measuring impact.
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 11:42 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress exists in official
U.S. statements and programs. The State Department’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026 message reaffirms the commitment to counter antisemitism, support Holocaust survivors and heirs, and preserve Holocaust memory across the globe (State.gov, 2026-01-27). The JUST Act framework (State Dept JUST Act Report) continues to guide accountability and best practices for restitution, education, and remembrance across countries that endorsed the
Prague/Terezin commitments, with ongoing embassy-level work and public reporting (State.gov, JUST Act Report; 2020).
There is no publicly announced, universal completion of all promised actions. While there are concrete mechanisms—such as Holocaust education efforts, archives access, provenance research for looted art, and restitution advocacy—the extent of measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally and comprehensive reparations for all survivors/heirs remains uneven and country-specific (JUST Act Report summary; 2020). The current publication of a broad, non-binding pledge mirrors an ongoing policy stance rather than a completed program with uniform results (State.gov JUST Act materials).
Key dates and milestones include International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026 statements and the ongoing JUST Act reporting cycle, which assesses progress through 46 country reports and updates on restitution, archives, and education efforts (State.gov, 2026-01-27; State.gov, JUST Act Report, 2020). Positive indicators highlighted in the JUST Act materials note leadership on restitution agreements with several
European states, continued support for provenance research, and education/remembrance initiatives, even as gaps persist in heirless-property restitution and access to archives (JUST Act Report).
Source reliability: State Department pages provide official policy positions and programmatic context for U.S. Holocaust issues; the JUST Act Report is a formal Congress-mandated assessment with embedded country-specific findings. Taken together, these sources establish a credible baseline for the U.S. commitment, while remaining cautious about the variability of progress across nations and the absence of a single, measurable global endpoint.
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 09:30 AMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of ongoing policy statement: The State Department reiterates this commitment in its
International Holocaust Remembrance Day remarks (Jan 27, 2026), explicitly saying the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. This anchors the claim in official rhetoric and annual commemorations (State Dept press release, 2026).
Institutional mechanisms and public-facing actions: The United States maintains the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues to advance Holocaust remembrance, asset restitution, and related protections (official
U.S. government pages describing the office and its mission). This supports ongoing efforts to address Holocaust-era assets, memory, and restitution as core policy components (State Dept/offices pages, 2024–2026).
Multilateral and normative alignment: The U.S. reinforces antisemitism countermeasures and Holocaust memory standards through participation in OSCE activities and corresponding U.S. national statements, including the U.S. National Statement for the Conference on Addressing Antisemitism in the OSCE Region (Feb 11, 2025). The address emphasizes the Working Definition of Antisemitism, Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitisim, and a whole-of-society approach—consistent with the claim’s aims (State Dept OSCE statement, 2025).
Evidence of progress or milestones: Public progress is evidenced by continued official commitments, professionalization of Holocaust issues policy, and adoption of guidelines and best practices (IHRA definition usage,
Washington Principles best practices) within U.S. diplomacy and allied fora. However, there is no single quantified global metric demonstrating a verifiable, universal reduction of antisemitic incidents or a completed set of reparations for all survivors and heirs to date (State Dept resources, 2024–2026).
Reliability and constraints: The sources are primary government statements and policy offices, which reliably reflect U.S. stance and ongoing programs, though they do not provide comprehensive global impact data. The claims depend on future policy execution and measurable outcomes, which remain in progress given the lack of a universal completion date or universal incident-reduction metrics (State Dept pages, 2025–2026).
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 04:51 AMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The State Department statement issued on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026) affirms this commitment as an ongoing national objective rather than a completed program with defined end dates. It frames these aims as longstanding
U.S. policy rather than a single, time-bound initiative. The language emphasizes values and intent rather than a set of concrete, measurable actions with milestones.
Evidence of progress or actions taken: The State Department’s Office of the Spokesperson reiterates the pledge in a formal policy statement, and the issue is tied to the work of the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues, which continues to guide policy on restitution, remembrance, and engagement with international partners. These frameworks exist, and there are ongoing activities such as commemoration events, guidance to embassies, and education resources, but the public record does not specify quantifiable progress metrics or new, independently verifiable outcomes tied to the 2026 pledge.
Assessment of responsibility and credibility: The primary source is the U.S. Department of State, a credible official channel, which frames the commitment as a steady-state policy position. Supporting material from the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues reinforces that restitution, education, and memory preservation are ongoing priorities, but they do not establish verifiable progress with dates or numeric targets. The claim remains aspirational and systemic rather than a single milestone-driven program.
Notes on reliability and context: The sources are official government statements and policy resources, appropriate for evaluating a government pledge. The public documentation does not present an external progress dashboard with incident counts or disbursement milestones tied to the 2026 promise. Therefore, the conclusion is that the claim is in_progress, pending concrete metrics or announced milestones.

Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress includes the State Department’s January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement, which reiterates the commitment to counter antisemitism, support survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory (State Department release, 2026-01-27).
Additional evidence of ongoing work is the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, launched in 2024 and endorsed by the United States among a broad coalition of states and organizations; the guidelines outline concrete actions such as appointing coordinators, monitoring incidents, and educating populations (State Department, Global Guidelines page).
The State Department has also centralized efforts through the Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism and related bureaus, signaling institutionalization of these priorities, but there is no publicly announced completion date or defined milestones that would guarantee the claimed outcomes (State Department pages and endorsements, 2024–2026).
Update · Feb 08, 2026, 01:03 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The State Department’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement (Jan 27, 2026) reiterates this commitment, framing it as a continuing
U.S. policy objective rather than a completed program.
Evidence of progress: The U.S. has an established, multi-year framework to counter antisemitism, including the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (May 2023) and ongoing “Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism” initiatives. These provide structured actions across agencies (law enforcement, education, online safety, interfaith work) and a broad international engagement, with periodic updates and endorsements from multiple partners (official White House and State Department materials). The Jan 2026 State Department release also highlights ongoing efforts to counter antisemitism worldwide and to protect Holocaust memory and reparative justice for survivors and heirs.
Completion status: There is no fixed completion date or definitive end-state published. The work appears to be implemented as a long-running, multi-agency program with iterative milestones rather than a single deliverable. The sources describe sustained policy actions and international coordination, but do not indicate a final, completed outcome as of 2026-02-07.
Dates and milestones: Key reference points include the May 2023 U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, the 2024-2025 Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, and the January 2026 State Department statement affirming ongoing commitment. These establish a trajectory of policy development, international endorsements, and programmatic actions rather than discrete, finished measures.
Source reliability note: The primary materials come from official U.S. government outlets (State Department press statements and policy documents), which are directly tied to the executing agencies. While these sources reliably reflect policy intent and announced actions, independent verification of impact (e.g., reductions in antisemitic incidents globally or measurable reparative outcomes for survivors) remains limited in the cited documents. Where possible, the assessment cross-references with official strategy documents to contextualize progress and incentives driving continued action.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 11:02 PMin_progress
The claim states:
The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The associated completion condition notes measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents, reparative remedies for survivors/heirs, and preservation/education efforts that maintain
Holocaust memory. Publicly available
U.S. statements reaffirm this commitment as an ongoing policy priority rather than a one-off action with a defined end date.
Evidence of progress exists in structured, institutional efforts rather than a single completed program. The State Department maintains the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues (SEHI), established in 1999, which coordinates restitution advocacy, supports Holocaust remembrance, and engages multilaterally on related issues (IHRA, Arolsen Archives, restitution efforts). SEHI leadership and activities have continued into 2021–2025 under current envoy Ellen Germain, with engagement in restitution, education, and memory initiatives (State Dept pages, 2024–2025 summaries). The U.S. commitment is reiterated in annual commemorations and in public statements, including
International Holocaust Remembrance Day releases.
Dialogue, treaties, and reporting provide concrete but incremental progress rather than final completion. U.S. actions include cooperating with partner governments on restitution and compensation efforts (JUST Act reporting, multilateral forums, and bilateral dialogues), leading U.S. delegations to IHRA, and maintaining memorial and educational programming. However, there is no publicly disclosed, universally agreed set of quantitative milestones or a declared end date for reducing antisemitic incidents worldwide or fully resolving Holocaust-era claims; progress is described as ongoing and iterative.
Milestones and sources relevant to the claim include: (1) State Department International Holocaust Remembrance Day press statements reaffirming the commitment to counter antisemitism and defend Holocaust memory (Jan 27, 2026 page). (2) SEHI overview pages detailing policy aims, leadership, and interagency work on restitution, remembrance, and education. (3) The JUST Act reporting framework and multiparty Holocaust restitution/diplomacy efforts, illustrating structured approaches to justice and memory. Taken together, these indicate sustained effort, but not a finalized completion of all promised actions. Reliability is high for official U.S. government statements and SEHI documentation; interpreting impact requires independent incident data and long-run education metrics not publicly consolidated in a single source.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 08:47 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Publicly available statements from January 2026 reiterate this commitment as an ongoing policy objective rather than a completed action (State Department, International Holocaust Remembrance Day, 2026-01-27). They emphasize principles and intended programs without asserting final outcomes.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 07:10 PMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The statement was issued as part of
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026 and mirrors ongoing
U.S. policy rhetoric on
Holocaust issues and antisemitism. The claim positions U.S. policy as both a normative stance and a set of concrete actions aimed at memory, justice, and prevention.
Evidence of progress to date includes official policy statements and internationally oriented guidelines. The State Department reaffirmed the U.S. commitment in its International Holocaust Remembrance Day release (Jan 27, 2026), explicitly stating the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
A substantive programmatic development is the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, launched in 2024 and endorsed by a broad set of states and international bodies, including the United States. The guidelines lay out actionable practices for monitoring, public diplomacy, education, data collection, and intergovernmental cooperation (endorsed as of Nov 2025).
The guidelines are complemented by the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and related bureaus within the State Department, which coordinate actions on antisemitism, Holocaust remembrance, and education efforts; these offices underpin the rhetoric with institutional structure and staff capacity (State Department pages and related press materials).
Milestones and observable progress include authoritative statements and formal endorsement of guidelines by multiple countries and international organizations, signaling broad alignment on anti-antisemitism policies and Holocaust memory preservation (Global Guidelines page; endorsements list).
Reliability considerations: the primary sources are U.S. government communications (State Department press releases and policy pages), which provide official positioning and concrete policy instruments, though they do not yet show globally verifiable reductions in antisemitic incidents or quantified reparative measures for Holocaust survivors and heirs. Secondary reporting corroborates the policy trajectory but varies in emphasis on effects.
Overall assessment: while the administration has enacted and publicly endorsed comprehensive guidelines and created dedicated channels for Holocaust issues, there is no publicly available, independently verified metric demonstrating a measurable decline in antisemitic incidents or completed reparative remedies. The claim remains in_progress pending observable, measurable outcomes.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 04:41 PMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
The responsible articulation of this commitment appears in a January 27, 2026 State Department press statement accompanying International Holocaust Remembrance Day, reaffirming the Administration’s intent to pursue these goals.
What evidence exists that progress has been made: The State Department document publicly signals intent and policy direction, naming the three areas of focus and framing them as ongoing national priorities. This provides a normative foundation for subsequent policy actions and budget decisions, but it does not itself detail concrete, independently verifiable progress toward measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents or tangible reparative remedies for survivors and heirs.
Evidence about completion, in-progress status, or failure: As of February 7, 2026, there are no publicly disclosed, independently verifiable milestones or completion dates tied to the stated aims. The press statement establishes intent and continued commitment, but completion conditions (measurable reductions in incidents, reparative remedies, and documented preservation/education efforts) have not been publicly demonstrated or quantified in available sources.
Dates and milestones: The primary documented moment is the January 27, 2026 State Department release linking
International Holocaust Remembrance Day to the pledge to counter antisemitism and defend Holocaust memory. No subsequent public milestones or completion dates have been published in accessible official channels.
Reliability note: The central source is an official
U.S. government press release from the State Department, which is the authoritative statement of policy. External verification of progress would require independent reporting on antisemitism incident trends, survivor reparations, and Holocaust-education/ memory-preservation initiatives funded or administered by U.S. agencies. Given the absence of such public progress metrics in current sources, the assessment remains cautious and status-forward looking.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 02:54 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence shows ongoing
U.S. policy supporting these aims, including the State Department’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day remarks that reaffirm countering antisemitism and defending Holocaust memory, and the broader emphasis on
Holocaust issues in official releases.
The Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism (launched 2024 and endorsed by numerous countries and organizations) reflect an international framework the U.S. promotes, indicating continued commitment beyond a single statement.
There is documented progress in policy framing and international cooperation, including the existence of the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism and related White House and State Department materials that outline a whole-of-society approach.
However, no public, independently verifiable completion condition exists showing universal reductions in antisemitic incidents or full reparative/educational outcomes across all contexts, so the claim remains a continuing effort rather than a finished program.
Reliability rests on official U.S. government sources (State Department pages and White House materials) and corroborating international guideline endorsements, which support the stated aims but do not provide quantified outcomes to declare completion.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 01:16 PMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The January 27, 2026 State Department message reiterates this pledge as part of
International Holocaust Remembrance Day, framing it as an enduring national commitment (State Department press release, 2026-01-27). It also cites a broader
U.S. posture toward antisemitism, Holocaust remembrance, and memory integrity within ongoing diplomacy and policy work (State Department press release, 2026-01-27).
Evidence of progress: The U.S. has publicly attached a whole-of-government framework to counter antisemitism through the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism released in 2023, with hundreds of actions and interagency coordination across federal, state, and civil society actors (White House/DOJ/State materials; RAND overview). In the years since, multiple agencies have pursued actions ranging from education and awareness campaigns to enforcement and international cooperation, as tracked by watchdogs and think tanks (RAND/Perspectives on the Strategy; ADL action tracker).
Status of completion: There is no single completion date or universally measurable milestone proving full fulfillment of the broad pledge. Progress is ongoing and varies by domain (education, enforcement, international diplomacy, survivor justice), with many actions still listed as ongoing or in the planning/implementation phase across different agencies (ADL actions tracker; DOJ hate crimes data).
Concrete milestones and dates: Key milestones include the 2023 National Strategy launch and subsequent agency actions, ongoing interagency coordination, and international engagements on
Holocaust memory and antisemitism. In 2024–2025, FBI hate crimes data show antisemitic incidents at elevated levels in the United States, highlighting continued domestic challenges even as the U.S. expands anti-antisemitism work (FBI/DOJ hate crime statistics; 2024 data cited by Justice.gov). Internationally, the State Department’s annual Holocaust remembrance statements frame ongoing diplomatic commitments, but specific measurable international incident reductions or survivor-justice deliverables are not publicly cataloged with fixed completion dates (State Department press release, 2026-01-27).
Reliability note: The primary articulation of the pledge comes from the U.S. State Department (official government source) on 2026-01-27. Supporting progress is drawn from the 2023 National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (official White House/archived materials) and reputable reporting on hate-crime statistics from the FBI/DOJ, supplemented by policy trackers from reputable non-governmental organizations. Taken together, these sources indicate a continuing, multi-year effort rather than a completed program (State Dept; FBI/DOJ; RAND/ADL analyses).
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 11:49 AMin_progress
Restating the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress exists in the framework and ongoing programs rather than a single completed action. The United States has long operated a National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (first released in 2023), which codifies a broad, government-wide approach to reducing antisemitic incidents and improving protections for
Jewish communities and Holocaust memory worldwide. In addition, the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, endorsed by multiple countries and organizations in 2024, provide international norms that the
U.S. can adopt and promote through diplomacy and policy tools.
A high-profile, contemporaneous signal of commitment is the State Department’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement (January 27, 2026), which explicitly affirms that the U.S. will “always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.” This includes actions by the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and related bureaus, underscoring ongoing policy emphasis rather than a closed-ended project.
What progress has been made so far is best described as systemic and policy-based rather than a single completed milestone. The National Strategy and the Global Guidelines provide measurable elements (policy development, reporting, education, diplomatic engagement) that count as progress, but there is no publicly stated, fixed completion date, and concrete, internationally comparable reductions in antisemitic incidents remain the subject of continuous monitoring and reporting by multiple actors.
Reliability notes: The principal sources are the U.S. Department of State statements and official policy documents (National Strategy, Global Guidelines) and the January 2026 Holocaust Remembrance Day press release, all of which are official government materials and suitable for tracing policy direction and rhetoric. While these sources confirm intent and ongoing efforts, independent verification of incident-level reductions or reparative actions for Holocaust survivors and heirs may be fragmented across multiple agencies and partner organizations.
Conclusion: The claim is best described as in_progress. There is a clear, stated commitment and several policy frameworks and official statements supporting ongoing efforts, but no single completed action or publication date marks final fulfillment.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 09:52 AMin_progress
Summary of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department issued a formal
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement on Jan 27, 2026, reaffirming the commitment to counter antisemitism, support survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory. The same release anchors the pledge in official policy language and ties it to ongoing diplomatic messaging (State Department press statement, 2026-01-27). Separately, the United States maintains institutional capacity through the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and related bureaus, which oversee restitution, commemoration, and memory integrity work (State Department pages; official offices). In parallel, the
U.S. national framework to counter antisemitism—launched in 2023—continues to guide federal actions across agencies, including education, awareness, and safeguards for memorial institutions (National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, DOJ/Hate Crimes resources).
Current status of the promise: There is ongoing activity and publicly codified policy supporting the three pillars—international antisemitism countermeasures, justice/remedies for survivors and heirs, and preservation/education of memory. However, there is no single published completion date or externally verifiable milestone that would indicate full completion, given the long-term and evolving nature of antisemitism and Holocaust memory work. Available evidence points to sustained, multi-year implementation rather than a concluded, time-bound finish (State Department release, National Strategy documents, official Holocaust Issues resources).
Key dates and milestones: January 27, 2026—State Department International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement reiterates policy commitments. May 2023—White House National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism released, outlining pillars and actions across agencies. Ongoing—Work of the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and related bureaus on restitution, memory integrity, and education, with periodic updates and best-practices documents (official State Department pages; DOJ Hate Crimes resource; USHMM reporting on memory and antisemitism).
Source reliability assessment: Primary statements come from the U.S. State Department, which directly articulates policy on
Holocaust remembrance and antisemitism. Supporting context comes from the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (White House/DOJ materials) and reputable institutions such as the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. While some outlets may echo the statements, the core evidence for progress and status is anchored in official government documents and recognized memory institutions, supporting a cautious but credible assessment of ongoing efforts.
Follow-up consideration: To track continued progress, monitor annual State Department statements on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, updates from the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues, and any new milestones or funding tied to restitution, education, or preservation efforts (e.g., updates to Praxis/Best Practices, new IHRA-related guidance, or congressional actions related to JUST Act implementations). A follow-up on a 2026-01-27 statement would be appropriate in about 12 months to assess newly announced actions or measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents abroad and updates to survivor/heir remedies.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 05:35 AMin_progress
The claim asserts that
the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. A January 27, 2026 State Department press statement reiterates this pledge in the context of
International Holocaust Remembrance Day, signaling continued official framing of the policy goals.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 03:36 AMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Current evidence shows the administration reaffirmed this commitment in a formal statement on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (State Department, Jan 27, 2026). The release emphasizes ongoing
U.S. actions and the need to uphold Holocaust memory, but it does not present a quantified, international metric of antisemitic incidents or a concrete, completed set of reparative measures for survivors and heirs (State Department, 2026).
Progress indicators: The public document signals continued policy stance and coordination across departments, including memorialization efforts and policy guidelines that accompany the national strategy to counter antisemitism (State Department, 2026; Biden White House archive, National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism). The history of the National Strategy, released in 2023, outlines over 100 actions and concrete programs, but progress reports specific to international antisemitism metrics or universal survivor reparations remain dispersed across multiple agencies and years (National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism; RAND/Jewish policy analyses cited in 2023–2024 previews).
Evidence of completion, in_progress, or failure: There is no publicly available completion or cessation notice for an international reduction in antisemitic incidents, nor a singular, binding set of reparative remedies for survivors and heirs. Available materials describe ongoing initiatives, commemorations, and policy guidelines rather than a finished, auditable program with clear end dates. Given the absence of a defined completion milestone and explicit progress metrics, the claim remains in_progress rather than complete or failed.
Dates and milestones: The primary milestone cited is the annual International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement (January 27, 2026) reaffirming policy aims. The broader framework references the 2023 National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, which outlines actions and programs, with follow-on reporting and implementation across 2023–2025 and beyond. Specific international incident trends or survivor-heritage reparations updates are not consolidated in a single, publicly verifiable timeline (State Department releases; White House/National Strategy documents).
Reliability and sourcing note: The core claim is rooted in official U.S. government messaging, notably State Department releases and the White House national strategy framework. For context, policy documents provide structure and intent but often lack uniform, internationally comparative outcome metrics. Evaluations drawn from independent policy analyses (RAND, AJWill provide broader framing) support understanding of implementation challenges and incentives but do not substitute for official progress data. Overall, sources are high-quality and appropriate for assessing stated intent, with recognized limitations in measurable international outcomes to date.
Update · Feb 07, 2026, 01:34 AMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The State Department has publicly reaffirmed this stance, most notably in the International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement (Jan 27, 2026), which commits the
U.S. to counter antisemitism globally, champion justice for survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory. In addition, the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, first released in 2024 and endorsed by multiple countries and organizations, reflect ongoing U.S. and international framing of
anti-Semitism policy and best practices (endorsements listed as of late 2025).
What progress looks like in practice: The combination of high-level policy statements and internationally endorsed guidelines signals continued
American leadership in normative standards, data collection, and joint action. Concrete, measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally, and definitive legal or reparative remedies for Holocaust survivors and heirs, remain unclear from public U.S. government disclosures to date. The administration has not publicly announced new, enforceable remedies or milestone-driven actions with independently verifiable incident-reduction data.
Reliability and context: Sources include the State Department’s official press materials and the Global Guidelines page, which offer primary, government-sourced evidence of intent and policy direction. These reflect a continued, though evolving, policy framework rather than a completed, auditable program with fixed completion dates. Given the absence of published, independent impact metrics, the status remains best characterized as in_progress rather than complete or failed.
Note on incentives: The United States maintains a policy posture that aligns with supporting
Jewish communities, combating antisemitism, and preserving
Holocaust memory as a matter of human rights and historical accuracy. While this framing aligns with stated goals, public progress indicators depend on sustained funding, interagency coordination, and international cooperation, all of which require ongoing monitoring beyond formal statements.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 11:47 PMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department reiterated the commitment on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026), embedding antisemitism countermeasures and Holocaust memory defense in official diplomacy.
Policy framework: The
U.S. has built a broader framework through the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (May 2023) and the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism (2024), which guide international actions and partnerships on antisemitism, Holocaust remembrance, and related issues.
Milestones and outcomes: Public materials show sustained policy direction and diplomacy, but no single publicly reported completion of actions that demonstrably reduce antisemitic incidents worldwide or fully remedy Holocaust survivors and heirs. Progress is described as ongoing rather than complete.
Source reliability and incentives: Primary evidence comes from official U.S. government communications (State Department), which strengthens reliability. Incentives include diplomatic leadership, allied coordination, and memory-preservation aims, shaping ongoing policy implementation.
Follow-up plan: A structured update should assess yearly antisemitism incident data, progress on survivor/heir reparations or remedies, and documented preservation/education outcomes, at a defined future date.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 10:06 PMin_progress
The claim restates that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Public
U.S. government sources show ongoing policy frameworks and programs aimed at these goals, indicating progress without a final completion. Evidence points to structured efforts rather than a completed milestone.
Progress includes the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, launched by the U.S. and endorsed by dozens of countries and international bodies. State Department pages list endorsements and ongoing refinement of the guidelines, reflecting a measurable policy framework toward countering antisemitism globally. This provides a concrete mechanism toward the claim’s first element.
On restitution and memory, the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues emphasizes two main areas: securing restitution/compensation for survivors and heirs, and promoting education and commemoration. Public remarks and materials from 2024–2025 describe active diplomatic and educational efforts, indicating ongoing progress toward the second and third elements of the claim.
The broader policy context includes the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (2023) and related State Department materials, which frame antisemitism countermeasures as a whole-of-society effort. These documents show sustained momentum and concrete actions (education, enforcement, memory preservation) aligned with the claim.
Reliability comes from official government sources documenting endorsements, restitution diplomacy, and Holocaust education initiatives, though there is no single completion date or universal metric confirming final achievement. Overall, progress is evident, but the claim remains in_progress as ongoing programs continue to unfold.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 07:43 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The State Department’s IHDR Day release (Jan 27, 2026) explicitly states the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The White House presidential message and related statements reiterate a continued commitment to remembrance and rights, reinforcing the official framing. The Department’s Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) continues its work on restitution, memorialization, and international cooperation.
Completion status: There is no published, finitary completion date or milestone that fully satisfies the broad pledge. Public materials describe ongoing policy development, bilateral restitution efforts, and educational/remembrance activities rather than a single closed-out action.
Reliability and milestones: Public signals rely on official
U.S. government communications and SEHI documentation, which are high-quality sources for policy commitments. Notable reference points include IHDR Day statements, SEHI’s ongoing work, and leadership under the Special Envoy, with dates anchored to 2021–present and recurring commemorations rather than a discrete finish date.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 05:00 PMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The
U.S. has advanced structured frameworks to counter antisemitism, including the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (2023) and the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism (endorsed by numerous countries and organizations in 2024). Public messages surrounding
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (January 27) reiterate a commitment to counter antisemitism and preserve Holocaust memory.
Current status and interpretation: While policy frameworks exist and evolve, there is no single, universally defined completion date or single milestone that definitively measures reductions in antisemitic incidents or comprehensive survivor restitution. Progress is ongoing across multiple departments with periodic public statements and annual reviews, but concrete outcomes require implementation and verification.
Key dates and milestones: May 2023—U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism; July 2024—Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism; January 2026—State Department reaffirmations on
Holocaust remembrance. These items show policy development and alignment rather than a finished, single deliverable.
Source reliability and caveats: Primary sources from U.S. government agencies (State Department, White House, Justice Department) indicate policy direction and milestones. Official statements describe intentions and frameworks; independent analyses are needed for measuring impact and incident reductions.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 03:08 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress (policy signals and statements): The State Department reaffirmed on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026) that the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. A parallel White House Presidential Message also emphasizes ongoing commitments to Holocaust memory, education, and victim dignity, indicating continued official emphasis rather than new actions.
Assessment of completion status: No publicly available, verifiable set of measurable actions with defined milestones showing reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally or new legal/remedial measures for survivors has been reported. The sources reflect reaffirmations of principle rather than progress with concrete metrics.
Notes on milestones and reliability: Government statements are reliable for policy stance but do not provide independent progress metrics. Civil-society and academic reports document antisemitism trends globally and provide context, but do not reflect U.S.-bound progress toward the completion condition.
Incentives and interpretation: The claims appear driven by diplomatic signaling and policy rhetoric intended to reaffirm commitments; without quantified outcomes, the status remains in_progress and contingent on future reporting and actions.
Follow-up: Public progress metrics or programmatic milestones should be reported by official channels to move from in_progress to complete.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 01:24 PMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: In January 2026,
U.S. official statements reaffirm the commitment, including a State Department release and a Presidential Message from the White House, underscoring ongoing anti-antisemitism efforts, Holocaust memory, and support for survivors and heirs. The statements align with the longstanding U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism first published in 2023, which provides a framework for government-wide action.
What is known about actions and milestones: The public documents emphasize renewed rhetoric, commemorations, and policy alignment with counter-antisemitism goals, plus continued engagement in remembrance and education. However, concrete, independently verifiable measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents worldwide or new, legally binding reparative remedies for Holocaust survivors and heirs are not itemized in the cited communications. No dated, verifiable programmatic milestones are announced in these official releases.
Status and reliability of sources: The claim is grounded in official U.S. government statements (State Department and White House) dated January 27, 2026, which are authoritative for policy intent and symbolic commitments. These sources, while definitive for rhetorical and policy framing, provide limited evidence of concrete, trackable outcomes or completion criteria beyond ongoing efforts. Supplementary reporting from independent outlets reinforces the existence of related initiatives, but does not establish quantified progress toward the completion condition.
Assessment: The claim reflects a stated policy posture and ongoing, multi-agency efforts rather than a completed program with measurable results. Based on current public records, the status is best characterized as in_progress: the U.S. has reaffirmed commitments and framework guidance, but demonstrable, independently verifiable progress toward reducing antisemitic incidents globally or delivering reparative/legal remedies remains to be shown through concrete milestones and data.

Brief restatement of the claim:
The United States commits to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The State Department reiterated this commitment in a January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day release, linking the pledge to ongoing antiantisemitism efforts and Holocaust remembrance work. The White House likewise framed the issue as a presidential priority, stressing the administration’s vow to use all legal tools to combat antisemitism.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 09:40 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Public
U.S. government statements surrounding
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026 reiterate this pledge, framing it as an ongoing national commitment rather than a completed policy end-state. Evidence of progress includes high-level public messaging and the continuation of U.S. initiatives and frameworks designed to counter antisemitism and preserve Holocaust memory (e.g., the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism and the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism first released in 2023, with subsequent measures in 2025). These items demonstrate policy emphasis and programmatic intent, but do not on their own establish measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally, nor explicit, verifiable reparative remedies for Holocaust survivors and heirs beyond ongoing educational, memorial, and legal efforts.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 05:06 AMin_progress
Restating the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The January 2026 State Department and White House messages frame these commitments as ongoing policy priorities tied to international guidelines and commemorations rather than a fixed deadline. Evidence shows sustained policy framing and public communications rather than a single completed action.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 04:04 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress exists across several
U.S. efforts that support the claim, including the White House and State Department initiatives launched in recent years. The U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (2023) outlines a whole-of-society approach and remains a framework for ongoing policy, awareness, and enforcement actions. In 2024, the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism were announced and subsequently endorsed by numerous countries and organizations, expanding international coordination against antisemitism. In January 2026, the United States reaffirmed its commitment on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day with a public statement underscoring countering antisemitism, justice for survivors and heirs, and preserving
Holocaust memory (State Department and White House communications).
Evidence about whether the claim has been completed is not present: there is no single, verifiable completion milestone or universal metric showing worldwide antisemitism reduction of a defined amount, nor a comprehensive, enforceable reparative program for all Holocaust survivors and heirs. Instead, there are ongoing policy programs, reporting requirements (e.g., JUST Act-related accountability and reporting by countries), and continuing education and commemoration efforts, all indicative of sustained action rather than closure. The current status is therefore best characterized as ongoing implementation with measurable activities but no final completion.
Key dates and milestones include the 2023 release of the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, the 2024
Buenos Aires launch and international endorsement of the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, and the 2026 International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements reaffirming commitment to antisemitism countermeasures, survivor justice, and Holocaust memory. These items show sustained policy focus and international coordination rather than a concluded project. Since there is no single completion date, progress should be tracked through annual reporting, policy updates, and milestone achievements in education, commemoration, and restitution debates.
Reliability note: sources are official U.S. government statements and strategic documents (State Department, White House materials) and are appropriate for assessing policy direction and stated commitments. They provide formal articulations of intent and framework actions but do not by themselves prove declamatory outcomes like worldwide antisemitism reductions or universal reparative settlements. Cross-referencing with independent watchdogs or scholarly analyses could further illuminate implementation effectiveness.
Update · Feb 06, 2026, 01:41 AMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence shows the administration publicly reiterates this commitment in official statements and commemorations, reflecting policy rhetoric rather than a fixed, time-bound completion date.
Evidence of progress: The State Department reaffirmed the stance on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (2026-01-27), and the White House issued a Presidential Message on the same day, underscoring remembrance and related commitments. These items indicate continued emphasis and policy framing rather than a final deliverable.
Ongoing mechanisms: The Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) and related programs focus on returning Holocaust-era assets, seeking reparations, and promoting remembrance and education, signaling ongoing implementation rather than completion.
Milestones and dates: The annual observance of International Holocaust Remembrance Day and the SEHI framework establish recurring actions, with no single end date attached to the stated goals. The material public record shows governance and funding flows but not a terminated project.
Reliability and caveats: Official
U.S. government statements are reliable for governance posture but do not supply quantified impact metrics (e.g., incident reductions) or a defined completion timeline. The claim therefore remains an ongoing policy imperative rather than a completed program.

Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence so far shows ongoing policy activity and diplomacy rather than a single completed action. Official statements reiterate commitment and frame it within existing strategies (State Dept, 2026-01).
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 09:49 PMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence shows the
U.S. has publicly reaffirmed this commitment on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day and through official channels, with ongoing institutional structures to advance the cause (State Department statements, Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues). The administration’s commitment is reflected in formal statements and policy infrastructure rather than a single completed program.
Progress indicators include: the State Department’s annual International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements reiterating counter-antisemitism aims and memory integrity (State Press Release, 2026-01-27); continued work of the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues, which oversees restitution, the pursuit of
Nazi-era assets, and Holocaust education/memory initiatives (State website, 2025 update); U.S. participation in IHRA and related initiatives to improve Holocaust education and remembrance (State Department background materials). These show sustained policy articulation and institutional activity but do not establish a discrete, universally measurable completion, given the broad scope of antisemitism reduction, restitution, and memory preservation.
Evidence of ongoing actions toward the stated goals includes: the JUST Act and related U.S. government efforts to seek restitution or redress for Holocaust survivors and heirs; ongoing development of best practices for Nazi-looted art and asset restitution; and continued engagement in international remembrance and education programs through the Special Envoy’s office (State resources and resource documents, 2024–2025). These items indicate progress and policy momentum but are not a single milestone that definitively closes the promise.
Relevant dates and milestones observed: January 27, 2026 (International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements reaffirm the commitment); May 2025 (Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues materials and policy development); 2024–2025 (IHRA participation and restitution/best-practices work). While these reflect persistent policy activity and formal commitments, none represent a defined completion of all components of the claim.
Reliability and limitations of sources: primary statements from the U.S. Department of State and White House communications are official and high-quality indicators of policy orientation, while State Magazine and official pages on the Special Envoy office provide context on ongoing implementation. However, publicly verifiable metrics for reducing international antisemitic incidents, delivering reparative remedies at scale, or quantified improvements in Holocaust memory integrity remain limited and scattered across programs, making a definitive completion assessment difficult at this time.
Follow-up note: The assessment would benefit from updated, centralized metrics on antisemitic incident trends globally, progress reports on specific restitution cases or asset returns, and standardized measures of
Holocaust education/memory preservation impact. A follow-up date is provided to reassess after key reporting periods.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 07:57 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. It asserts a broad, ongoing commitment rather than a one-off action. The current status appears to be an ongoing policy stance rather than a completed program with defined end-points.
Evidence of progress includes official statements from
U.S. government sources reaffirming the policy. The State Department issued a January 27, 2026 press statement explicitly asserting that “The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.” The White House also issued a Presidential Message on International Holocaust Remembrance Day on January 27, 2026, reiterating dedication to combating antisemitism and upholding human rights, and pledging to make these goals a priority of the administration.
These sources demonstrate high-level commitment and rhetorical progression, but they do not, on their own, document concrete, measurable milestones. There is no public, independently verifiable release of quantified reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally, nor explicit, reportable reparative measures to Holocaust survivors and heirs with timelines. Similarly, while there are ongoing offices and initiatives (e.g., Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues) and commemorative actions, formal completion of policy milestones remains unreported.
Given the absence of published, auditable metrics or milestone-based progress as of 2026-02-05, the claim remains in_progress rather than complete. The available sources show sustained rhetorical and policy-level commitments and the existence of institutional structures to advance the goals, but they do not confirm finalization or achievement of defined completion conditions.
Reliability notes: the assessment relies on primary statements from the U.S. State Department and White House within the January 2026 International Holocaust Remembrance Day context. These sources confirm policy intent and ongoing emphasis but do not provide independent verification of measurable outcomes or end-state completion. Inference about progress should be tempered by the absence of quantified data or staged milestones.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 05:22 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The State Department’s January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement reiterates this pledge as a standing
US policy priority, pairing it with ongoing diplomacy and advocacy through the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) and related channels. SEHI’s mandate includes restitution efforts, compensation advocacy, Holocaust education, and engagement with international bodies to preserve memory and counter distortions.
Evidence of progress: The administration maintains an active framework through SEHI to pursue restitution, promote education, and fight Holocaust distortion. SEHI coordinates with
European partners, oversees outreach and commemoration activities, and engages in multilateral forums such as the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance and the International Commission of the Arolsen Archives. The State Department highlights continued advocacy, liaison work on art restitution, archival access, and support for Holocaust remembrance observances abroad and domestically.
Progress toward completion: There is no published, concrete completion date or quantified milestone showing the claim has been fully completed. The programs described are ongoing and incremental—advancing restitution efforts (where possible), supporting education, and countering antisemitism through diplomacy and policy guidance. The available sources indicate sustained activity but not a categorical closure or end-point to the initiatives.
Key dates and milestones: The claim reflects ongoing, formal US policy statements (e.g., International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements) and SEHI’s long-running efforts since 1999, with current leadership identified as of 2021–present. Notable activities include liaison with the
Washington Declaration framework, participation in Holocaust remembrance commemorations, and collaboration with international partners to address
Nazi-era asset restitution and memory preservation. Reliability note: The primary sourcing is official US government communications (State Department) and SEHI institutional materials, supplemented by coverage from reputable outlets discussing the policy framing; this supports a credible, policy-forward picture but does not provide independent, external measurements of antisemitism incidence.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 03:21 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Public
U.S. policy documents show ongoing, multi-faceted efforts aligned with that aim, including global guidelines for countering antisemitism, and a dedicated Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism (SEAS).
Evidence of progress includes the U.S. government’s adoption and promotion of Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, first introduced in 2024 and supported by the State Department and SEAS. These guidelines outline best practices and international cooperation to reduce antisemitic harm and misinformation, and have been updated with endorsements from multiple countries and organizations (State.gov, SEAS pages).
There are concrete policy and funding moves intended to bolster impact, such as the 2026 funding package for the State Department that increases oversight and accountability related to antisemitism,
anti-Israel bias at the U.N., and
Holocaust issues, including provisions to strengthen monitoring and combat antisemitism and Holocaust distortion (
Jewish Insider reporting on the 2026 package ).
Additionally, the United States has anchored its approach in the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (May 2023) and related administration initiatives, which together aim to reduce antisemitic incidents abroad, support Holocaust survivors and heirs, and preserve Holocaust memory through education and commemoration. While these measures are ongoing and multi-year, no single completion date has been declared for full realization of the claim.
Source reliability: The core statements come from official U.S. government outlets (State Department pages and related U.S. government materials) and reputable policy reporting (e.g., Jewish Insider summarizing the funding package). White House statements and independent policy analyses corroborate the existence of sustained, high-level attention to antisemitism, Holocaust memory, and related accountability measures. Taken together, these sources indicate continuing, but not yet fully completed, progress toward the stated goals.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 02:20 PMin_progress
The claim promises that
the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Public statements surrounding
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026 publicly reaffirm these commitments, signaling continued emphasis rather than a completed program (State Dept, Jan 27, 2026). The Administration highlights ongoing policy frameworks and offices aimed at Holocaust remembrance and restitution, including the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI), which has historically focused on returning assets and securing compensation for
Nazi-era rights (State.gov, SEHI; JUST Act Report).
There is evidence of ongoing policy activity but no single, verifiable completion milestone announced for all three promises. The JUST Act and related reporting tasks compel periodic assessments of restitution efforts and ongoing property claims, indicating continued
Congressional oversight rather than final closure (State.gov, JUST Act Report to Congress). Separately, commemorative statements and presidential messages reiterate commitment to memory and education, but these are declaratory and programmatic rather than evidence of a completed, measurable reduction in antisemitic incidents worldwide (White House, State Department statements).
Progress toward reducing antisemitic incidents internationally remains difficult to quantify publicly in a comprehensive, cross-national way, and no universal, independently verifiable metric is presented in the cited materials. The presence of SEHI and related diplomacy signals ongoing work toward restitution, but concrete, globally verifiable payouts or legal remedies to survivors and heirs have not been documented as completed in 2026 sources. Overall, the record shows sustained emphasis and incremental policy work rather than a finished, measurable program that satisfies the stated completion condition.
Key dates and milestones reported publicly include the January 27, 2026 International Holocaust Remembrance Day messaging and related White House and State Department statements, along with ongoing SEHI activities and reparations-related reporting requirements (State.gov, White House). The reliability of these sources is high for official policy positions and programmatic framing, though they do not provide a comprehensive, independently audited progress ledger.
Reliability notes: official
U.S. government statements and offices (State Department, White House) provide authoritative statements of intent and ongoing frameworks, while independent analyses or NGO reporting would be needed to corroborate quantified progress on antisemitism metrics or stage-by-stage restitution outcomes (State.gov; SEHI; JUST Act). Taken together, the record supports continued U.S. commitment but not a conclusive completion under the stated completion condition.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 11:50 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The current year and official statements indicate continued commitment, including a January 27, 2026 State Department release tied to
International Holocaust Remembrance Day that reaffirms these objectives (State Department, 2026-01-27). The administration has framed these goals as enduring policy priorities rather than finite milestones, with ongoing public messaging and diplomacy to counter antisemitism and preserve Holocaust memory (White House, 2026-01-27).
Evidence of progress includes formal legislative activity to enhance
Holocaust education, notably the Never Again Education Act and its reauthorization efforts. House action in late 2024 and subsequent 2025 activity sought to expand U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum programs and national dissemination of resources for teachers and students (Congress.gov; Rosen’s office, 2024-12; GovTrack, 2025). While unclear whether final signature occurred by early 2026, the trend demonstrates legislative momentum toward measurable educational programs and cross-sector outreach (USHMM funding announcements, 2026).
In parallel,
U.S. institutions are implementing and expanding education and remembrance initiatives that align with the claim. The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum and related bodies publish grants and research opportunities intended to broaden scholarly and public engagement with Holocaust history (USHMM, 2026-01-26). These activities support documented preservation and education efforts and contribute to the integrity of Holocaust memory through curated resources, exhibitions, and scholarly work (USHMM annual reports, 2024–2025).
Reliability of sources appears solid and varied, spanning official government statements (State Department, White House),
Congressional documents, and reputable institutional outlets (USHMM). The forward-looking nature of the claim, combined with ongoing education funding and international diplomacy, suggests progress is being made but not yet codified as a single, completed action. Given the absence of a discrete completion milestone or signed legislation by early 2026, the status should be read as in_progress rather than complete or failed.
Follow-up on a concrete completion point should target the signing of any reauthorization or expansion legislation, and the publication of specified annual metrics (e.g., antisemitic incident reductions, number of educational resources circulated, and survivor/heir reparative actions) within the next 12–18 months (policy updates from State Dept, USHMM program reports). A 2026-12-31 follow-up date is suggested to assess whether measurable policies yield demonstrable reductions, reparative remedies, and preserved memory programs as outlined in the completion condition.
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 09:29 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The State Department’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement reaffirms this by pledging ongoing counter-antisemitism efforts and defense of Holocaust memory (State Dept, 2026-01-27).
Evidence of progress: The administration has anchored the effort in the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, released in 2023, which outlines a broad, whole-of-society set of actions with concrete targets across federal and non-federal actors (White House Archives, 2023). The 2026 White House and State Department materials reiterate renewed emphasis and continued pursuit of those actions, including at international memory and education venues (White House, 2026-01-27; State Dept, 2026-01-27).
Current status of the promise: There is ongoing implementation of the National Strategy, with more than a hundred actions catalogued by the administration and partner organizations, and ongoing diplomacy through forums like the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) supported by
U.S. representatives (RAND/R&D summaries and State Dept materials, 2023–2025; State Dept resources, 2026). However, verifiable, internationally comparable reductions in antisemitic incidents remain a difficult, long-term measure and are not yet demonstrated in a single, comprehensive metric.
Dates and milestones: The National Strategy was released in May 2023, establishing the framework and initial actions; ongoing updates and reporting have continued through 2024–2026 (White House archives, 2023; DOJ/Hate Crimes resources, 2023). The International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements on January 27, 2026, reaffirm continuation of stated policies and memory-preservation efforts (State Dept, 2026-01-27; White House, 2026-01-27).
Source reliability note: The core claims come from official U.S. government communications (State Department and White House) and are complemented by independent analyses of the strategy’s scope and actions (RAND perspective, ADL action summaries). These sources are appropriate for assessing official policy stance and programmatic progress, though independent, longitudinal data on antisemitism metrics remains limited (State Dept; White House; RAND/ADL analyses, 2023–2025).
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 05:18 AMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence exists in official
U.S. policy frameworks and international guidelines: the White House and State Department have publicly committed to counter antisemitism and to uphold
Holocaust memory (including the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism endorsed by multiple countries and bodies, and the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism announced in 2023). These instruments establish a whole-of-government approach and international cooperation to monitor, deter, and respond to antisemitism. Sources include State Department statements and the White House/Office of the Special Envoy materials (2024–2025).
There is substantive policy action, but no single, verifiable completion date or universal measurable reduction of antisemitic incidents globally. The National Strategy outlines pillars such as awareness, safety, data collection, enforcement, education, and a whole-of-society approach, while Global Guidelines promote concrete practices for governments to implement, monitor, and evaluate antisemitism across contexts. These documents show ongoing efforts rather than finality.
Evidence of progress includes continued international endorsements of guidelines (as of late 2025) and ongoing U.S. leadership in anti-antisemitism policy, security support for
Jewish communities, and Holocaust remembrance programs. Publicly available data from independent researchers and NGOs indicate fluctuations in antisemitic incidents worldwide, but attribution to any single policy is not straightforward; they demonstrate an active policy environment rather than a completed outcome. Notable sources: State Department releases on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 2026), the Global Guidelines page, and the 2023 National Strategy (with coverage by Justice Department/Hate Crimes resources).
Reliability note: Official U.S. government statements (State Department, White House) provide authoritative adherence to the claim, but independent incident data from NGOs (e.g., ADL/J7 reports) show variable trajectories across countries and time, making a definitive global reduction difficult to claim as completed. The claim’s emphasis on memory integrity is supported by ongoing Holocaust remembrance framing and education initiatives, though measurable “integrity” metrics are not uniformly defined across sources.
Overall assessment: The claim is best characterized as ongoing policy implementation with measurable actions underway (policy development, guidelines, and international coordination), but not a completed, universal global outcome by a fixed date. The current status aligns with an in_progress assessment given continued governance actions and international cooperation, rather than a completed, verifiable reduction of antisemitism worldwide. Relevant sources: State Department statements on International Holocaust Remembrance Day (2026), Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, and independent incident reports (e.g., ADL J7 2025).
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 03:50 AMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States commits to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The State Department’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement (Jan 27, 2026) reiterates this pledge as part of its ongoing commemorations and policy stance (State Department, 2026-01-27). It frames the commitment as enduring and tied to the broader aim of countering antisemitism globally and preserving
Holocaust memory (State Department, 2026-01-27).
Progress evidence: The U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (May 2023) is the main framework guiding policy, with four pillars focusing on awareness, reporting, and preventive measures, complemented by interagency efforts across the administration (Justice.gov, 2023; White House archives). Since 2023, agencies have pursued education, community outreach, and improved reporting mechanisms, though specific, verifiable worldwide antisemitic incident reductions are not attributed to a single milestone.
Completion status: There is no published, final completion date or a single “finished” milestone for the overarching pledge. The statements and strategy mark an ongoing program with periodic actions and updates, rather than a discrete completed project, making a definitive completion assessment inappropriate at this time. The priority remains continuous policy work rather than a completed target.
Dates and milestones: Key benchmarks include the 2023 National Strategy publication and annual observances such as
International Holocaust Remembrance Day; the State Department’s 2026 remarks emphasize continuing counter-antisemitism efforts and memory preservation. Additional milestones are distributed across interagency initiatives and Holocaust issues offices, with no single completion date identified (State Department, 2026-01-27; Justice.gov, 2023).
Source reliability note: The State Department primary release explicitly states the pledge and ties it to official policy and commemoration practices, making it a highly reliable, primary source for the claim. Supplementary context from the White House and Justice Department corroborates the longstanding, interagency approach to countering antisemitism, though outcomes remain variably reported and interwoven with broader anti-hate initiatives.
Follow-up note: To assess meaningful progress, a future update should track measurable indicators such as declines in antisemitic incidents globally, documented reparative actions for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and documented preservation/education program expansions (State Department 2026-01-27; Justice.gov 2023).
Update · Feb 05, 2026, 02:06 AMin_progress
The claim restates that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. It rests on statements associated with International Holocaust Remembrance Day and related
U.S. government communications. Publicly available U.S. government releases and high-level statements in late January 2026 emphasize a continued commitment to counter antisemitism, support Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory. The State Department and White House messages frame these aims in the context of remembrance and ongoing policy focus for
Holocaust issues, including the preservation of memory and education. Concrete progress highlighted in these sources includes formal commemorations, presidential messages, and departmental notes that reaffirm policy priorities. These documents signal ongoing attention and policy framing rather than a published, verifiable slate of new, measurable actions with defined timelines. There is currently no publicly available, independently verifiable completion condition or milestone showing that antisemitic incidents have demonstrably decreased globally, that reparative remedies for survivors/heirs have been implemented at scale, or that preservation/education efforts have achieved a defined standard of memory integrity. The references are primarily rhetorical and commemorative, not a disclosed, independently audited program with milestones. Sources consulted include U.S. State Department releases and White House statements tied to
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (e.g., state.gov and official White House communications). These sources are reliable for official policy positions, but they do not, on their own, provide verifiable evidence of measurable outcomes or completion of the stated aims. Overall assessment: the claim is framed as an ongoing policy stance with symbolic and commemorative actions, but lacks publicly confirmed, measurable completion as of 2026-02-04. The appropriate verdict, given the absence of quantified progress, is in_progress.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 11:40 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory, as stated in the January 27, 2026 State Department message on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day.
Evidence of progress: The
U.S. has advanced international frameworks and guidance, notably the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism launched in 2024, with ongoing endorsements from numerous countries and intergovernmental bodies (endorsement list updated through 2025). The guidelines call for speak-out, education, data collection, and cross-border cooperation, signaling a structured, multilateral approach to counter antisemitism beyond U.S. borders. In addition, the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (2023) and related policy instruments provide a foundation for measurable actions across government departments, including the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues.
Progress status: The claim remains in_progress rather than completed. While high-level commitments and international guidelines exist and are being implemented incrementally, publicly verifiable, globally measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents and formal reparative actions for Holocaust survivors/heirs are not yet documented as completed outcomes. The central milestone is the establishment and adoption of guiding frameworks and ongoing international collaboration, with continued policy work to translate those frameworks into tangible results.
Milestones and dates: Key milestones include the 2024 launch of the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism and the 2023
U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, both intended to guide policy and enforcement. Endorsements for the Global Guidelines were listed as of November 2025, reflecting broad international buy-in. The January 2026 State Department statement reiterates ongoing commitment to those objectives, rather than announcing final completion.
Reliability and context of sources: Primary sourcing from the U.S. State Department confirms the formal policy stance. Secondary coverage from other reputable outlets corroborates the statement and its framing, while the State Department pages detailing the Global Guidelines and endorser list provide authoritative context. Taken together, sources indicate a sustained, policy-driven effort rather than a one-off action, with incentives aligned toward international cooperation and Holocaust education and memory preservation.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 09:21 PMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department issued a January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement reaffirming these commitments, and the department’s Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues outlines ongoing policy work on
Holocaust restitution, remembrance, and combating antisemitism. The White House and other
U.S. federal documents reiterate these priorities annually and through related policy work.
Progress status: There are explicit policy statements and institutional structures dedicated to countering antisemitism, supporting survivors and heirs, and preserving Holocaust memory, but there is no publicly announced, concrete, end-to-end completion metric or dated milestones showing final resolution of all promised actions.
Reliability note: Primary sources are official U.S. government communications (State Department and White House). Secondary reporting corroborates the language, but measurable outcomes or timelines for “measurable policies” or “reparative remedies” are not provided in these releases. Future reporting would require updates on specific programs, funding, and disaster/restitution outcomes to gauge completion.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 08:02 PMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence shows the administration has pursued a structured, ongoing set of policies and public commitments rather than a single completed action. The U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (released May 2023) articulates a whole-of-society set of actions across government agencies, Congress, and civil society, aimed at reducing antisemitic incidents and improving education and awareness. Public-facing statements around
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (January 27, 2026) reiterate the pledge to counter antisemitism, support survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory, indicating continued emphasis on the promise rather than a finished program. The cited materials consistently frame this as an ongoing policy priority rather than a finished, time-bound completion.
Progress indicators include multiple official documents and statements from the White House, State Department, and related
U.S. government outlets. The National Strategy outlines concrete action pillars and actions to be undertaken by various agencies, with more than 100 actions cited, reflecting a broad implementation plan rather than a single milestone. The January 2026 commemorations and statements reaffirm the commitment and reference ongoing efforts, rather than reporting a resolved outcome. Taken together, these sources demonstrate the presence of policy momentum and public accountability mechanisms, but not a final, completed status.
Assessment of completion: No definitive, independently verifiable completion date or outcome is indicated. The claim’s completion condition—measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents worldwide, reparative remedies for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and preserved/educational efforts that maintain memory integrity—remains described as ongoing in policy documents and public statements. There is evidence of ongoing programs and commitments, but no single, closed‑loop end state documented as completed to date. The balance of sources suggests an in-progress trajectory.
Milestones and reliability: Key milestones include the 2023
U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism and subsequent agency actions, plus annual commemorations such as International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements (e.g., January 2026). The sources are official or closely aligned with U.S. government communications (State Department pages, White House statements, national security briefings), which reliably reflect policy emphasis and intended trajectories, though they do not yet demonstrate final attainment. Overall, the current reporting supports ongoing implementation and public accountability without evidence of closure.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 05:04 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. This framing appears in
U.S. official statements surrounding
International Holocaust Remembrance Day and related diplomacy. The language is reiterated in a January 27, 2026 State Department press release and accompanying statements from U.S. leaders (e.g., the White House and the Secretary of State).
What evidence exists that progress has been made includes high-level commitments and ongoing institutional structures rather than completed, measurable outcomes. The State Department press release asserts the policy stance and signals continued diplomatic emphasis on antisemitism countermeasures, Holocaust remembrance, and memory integrity. Additional corroboration comes from a Presidential/administration message and a Secretary of State statement on the same occasion, all framing these goals as ongoing guiding principles rather than final, completed actions.
There is no public evidence of a specific, verifiable completion of the promised actions in the claim (e.g., quantified reductions in antisemitic incidents worldwide, concrete reparative measures for Holocaust survivors and heirs, or audited preservation/education milestones). What exists are policy orientations, offices (e.g., Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues), and annual commemorations that institutionalize the commitment, not a finished set of measurable outcomes.
Key dates and milestones mentioned in the sources are limited to the commemorative timing (International Holocaust Remembrance Day on January 27) and the contemporaneous official statements dates (January 27, 2026). While these establish continuity and visibility of the policy stance, they do not document independent, externally verifiable progress toward the stated completion criteria.
Source reliability is high for the claim’s framing: official U.S. government channels (State Department, White House, and allied embassies) provide primary statements of policy. Independent verification of impact (reduction in antisemitic incidents globally or verifiable reparations/education milestones) is not present in these materials, so the assessment cannot confirm completion. Given the absence of measurable milestones, the claim remains aspirational and currently in_progress rather than complete or failed, based on publicly available documentation.

Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress includes a formal State Department release on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026) reaffirming the
U.S. commitment to counter antisemitism, uphold justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory. The statement signals ongoing policy emphasis and public articulation of the goal by the administration.
A concrete staffing milestone supporting these aims is the confirmation of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism (SEAS), Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun, by the U.S. Senate in December 2025, with subsequent public statements in early 2026.
Progress toward measurable outcomes such as reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally or tangible reparative actions for survivors remains unclear in high-level statements to date. Public-facing milestones focus on rhetoric, leadership appointments, and remembrance initiatives rather than published, verifiable incident-reduction metrics or legal remedies with documented efficacy.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 01:25 PMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: Official
U.S. policy frameworks exist, including the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (May 2023) and the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI), with ongoing policy work and commemorations reaffirming commitments in 2026 (International Holocaust Remembrance Day materials and presidential statements).
Current status of completion: No public, verifiable milestones show a measurable reduction in antisemitic incidents internationally or a fixed timetable for reparations or education programs. Activities are ongoing, but concrete outcome metrics or sunset dates have not been publicly published.
Key dates and milestones: May 2023 – National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism; January 2026 – reaffirmed commitments in statements and commemoration materials. Absence of a defined completion date suggests progress is incremental and policy-driven rather than a single completed measure.
Source reliability note: Primary sources are official government documents and statements (State Department, White House, Justice Department) corroborated by institutions like the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum for context; they provide policy framing but not standardized outcome metrics.
Conclusion: The claim is being actively pursued with structured policy and commemorative actions, but a publicly verified completion has not been demonstrated as of 2026-02-04.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 09:33 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department reaffirmed the commitment on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026), outlining ongoing policy to counter antisemitism, support survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory. The Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) continues to implement restitution, compensation, and remembrance policy as part of a long-standing
U.S. framework. White House communications in 2025 also emphasize remembrance, education, and safeguarding Holocaust memory across government channels.
Progress toward completion: Publicly verifiable reductions in antisemitic incidents attributable to U.S. policy are not yet demonstrated; external incident data through 2024–2025 show persistent or rising antisemitism in various regions. Evidence of support for survivors and heirs exists in policy structures and funding streams, but comprehensive reparations and universal Holocaust-education outcomes remain incomplete or uneven.
Milestones and dates: The key stated commitment appears in the State Department's January 27, 2026 release. SEHI operations date back to 1999 and continue under current leadership, with ongoing policy documents and best-practice resources published in 2024–2025. Commemorations and education initiatives persist annually via White House proclamations and international remembrance networks.
Source reliability: The principal claim source is a U.S. government release (state.gov), supplemented by White House statements and SEHI materials, which collectively provide a policy-focused view. Independent antisemitism-trend reports offer necessary context but show mixed progress, underscoring that the completion condition remains not yet achieved.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 05:29 AMin_progress
Claim restated:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence of progress includes formal statements and policy actions announced around
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026, reiterating the commitment to counter antisemitism and preserve Holocaust memory (State Department press release; White House presidential message). There is no single completion date; progress is evidenced by ongoing programs, annual commemorations, and policy guidance across the executive branch, including the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism and the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 04:12 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department reaffirmed this commitment in a January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement, tying the pledge to ongoing work by the Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism (SEAS) and related Holocaust issues offices.
U.S. policy discourse continues to reference the 2023 National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism as a framework for action.
What remains unclear or in progress: There is no publicly posted, centralized measure showing globally verifiable reductions in antisemitic incidents attributable to U.S. policy, nor a documented set of reparative remedies for Holocaust survivors and heirs with concrete milestones. Legislative activity suggests potential funding and expanded authority for SEAS, but firm completion criteria and timelines are not publicly established.
Reliability and context: The core claim derives from official U.S. government statements and SEAS work, indicating high reliability for intent and ongoing policy development. Monitoring State Department releases, White House statements, and any enacted legislation will be necessary to determine when tangible outcomes materialize.
Current assessment: Based on available public records, the promise appears in progress rather than completed, with no disclosed completion date or full set of measurable milestones accessible at this time.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 02:26 AMin_progress
Paragraph 1: The claim asserts that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. This commitment is echoed in official statements issued on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (January 27, 2026) by both the State Department and the White House, framing it as a continuing
U.S. policy priority. The verbiage appears as a declarative stance rather than a reported policy outcome at this time (State press release; White House presidential message).
Paragraph 2: Evidence of progress includes ongoing commemorations and policy guidance meant to counter antisemitism and support
Holocaust remembrance. The State Department’s release reiterates the pledge on a global stage and lays out that this is part of the annual commemoration and institutional efforts (State Department, 2026-01-27). The White House message similarly frames the administration’s commitment and reaffirms priority given to combating antisemitism and honoring Holocaust survivors (White House, 2026-01-27).
Paragraph 3: There is limited publicly available data showing measurable, internationally verifiable reductions in antisemitic incidents attributable to U.S. policy, or formal reparations progress for Holocaust survivors and heirs, as of early 2026. Independent incident-tracking reports (e.g., J7/ADL compilations) indicate that antisemitic incidents remain significant in several regions, highlighting ongoing challenges rather than clear policy-driven declines (ADL J7 2025; DSG ONA incident data 2025). These sources illustrate the broader context but do not demonstrate a documented, U.S.-specific performance metric achieving the stated goals.
Paragraph 4: Concrete milestones or completion criteria for the three-part promise (anti-antisemitism actions, reparative justice for survivors/heirs, and preservation/education of Holocaust memory) have not been publicly reported with specific timelines or measurable targets. The completion condition provided—measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents, legal/reparative remedies, and documented preservation/education outcomes—remains unfurnished in public U.S. government reporting as of 2026-02-03. The available official statements thus far establish intent and ongoing effort rather than documented completion.
Paragraph 5: Key dates and milestones to watch include ongoing State Department Holocaust Issues activities, continued Inter-Agency Holocaust remembrance programs, and any new policy frameworks or funding tied to antisemitism countermeasures and survivor rights. The State Department page and White House messages anchor the claim in official rhetoric (State 2026-01-27; White House 2026-01-27). Independent incident-tracking reports should be monitored for any changes that could reflect policy impact, though they are not U.S.-specific completion indicators.
Paragraph 6: Source reliability in this assessment centers on official U.S. government communications (State Department and White House) for the stated commitment, complemented by independent incident data from reputable watchdogs and think tanks to gauge the broader context. Taken together, the current evidence shows the claim is actively professed and being pursued as a policy priority, but there is no public, verifiable completion or milestone-based progress report as of early 2026. Given the absence of concrete achievement data, the status remains best characterized as in_progress.
Update · Feb 04, 2026, 12:27 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department reaffirmed the pledge in its
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement (Jan 27, 2026), explicitly saying the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The White House also issued a presidential message on the same day, underscoring commitments to memorialization and the dignity of human life. The Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) continues to operate as the
U.S. channel for policy on Holocaust restitution, remembrance, and related issues, with ongoing public-facing activities and documentation of policy work.
What progress exists toward measurable outcomes: The public record demonstrates ongoing diplomatic and commemorative activity tied to Holocaust remembrance and anti-antisemitism work (official statements, SEHI framework, and related bureaus). However, there is no published, independently verifiable set of measurable metrics showing worldwide antisemitic incidents are decreasing, reparations to Holocaust survivors and heirs are being disbursed at defined milestones, or documented education/preservation efforts have achieved certified completion across all target regions.
Evidence about completion status: There are clear, ongoing U.S. government actions (statements, establishment/continuation of SEHI work, annual remembrance programs). There is no identified, finalized completion date published for the overarching claim, consistent with a long-term, iterative policy effort rather than a single project with a fixed end date.
Dates and milestones: Key milestones cited in the public record include International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements on January 27, 2026, and the continued operations of SEHI (established 1999) with periodic releases and briefings. Notably, there is no projected completion date published for the overarching claim, underscoring a sustained policy approach rather than a finite project.
Reliability note: The core claim is grounded in official U.S. government statements from the State Department and White House, which are high-quality sources for stated policy. Independent verification of impact (reductions in antisemitic incidents, reparations disbursements, or memory-preservation completions) is limited by the lack of publicly released, standardized metrics across all regions. Where available, hate-crime data (e.g., antisemitic incidents in the U.S.) show increases in recent years, underscoring the distinction between stated policy goals and measured outcomes on a global scale.
Update · Feb 03, 2026, 09:33 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counters antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. This statement appears in the State Department’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day release dated January 27, 2026.
Evidence of progress: The primary public signal is ongoing diplomatic and policy activity related to
Holocaust remembrance, antisemitism monitoring, and engagement through the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and related bureaus (State Department). The release itself reaffirms intent but does not enumerate specific, measurable policy actions or milestones achieved to date.
Assessment of completion status: There is no public record in early 2026 of concrete, completed measures that demonstrably reduce antisemitic incidents internationally, provide new reparative remedies to Holocaust survivors/heirs, or fund/execute documented preservation/education efforts with verifiable impact metrics. The statement functions as a policy pledge and framing rather than a completed program with defined completion criteria.
Reliability and context: The sourcing is a direct State Department press release (International Holocaust Remembrance Day, 2026) and associated
U.S. government policy offices (SEHI/SEAS). This context suggests ongoing commitment and potential future actions, but lacks independent, quantifiable progress data as of the current date. Given the government’s incentive to publicly reaffirm anti-antisemitism commitments, results should be tracked against explicit policy milestones when announced. The claim remains publicly stated but—based on available official materials—not yet demonstrably completed.
Update · Feb 03, 2026, 07:59 PMin_progress
Claim restated:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The State Department released the International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement on Jan 27, 2026 affirming the pledge, and the White House issued a presidential message reaffirming remembrance and human dignity on the same day. These publicly available statements establish policy intent and official messaging.
What is known about actions toward completion: Public materials emphasize advocacy, diplomacy, and education rather than finalized, verifiable outcomes. No independently verifiable milestones or completion metrics were published as of early 2026.
Milestones and dates: The trigger public articulation occurred on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026). Subsequent official materials reiterate commitment but do not present quantified targets or completion dates.
Source reliability and caveats: Official
U.S. government statements are high reliability for policy intent. The absence of quantified outcome data means the assessment remains preliminary and focused on progress in rhetoric and programs rather than demonstrable completion.
Follow-up note: To determine completion, monitor annual updates from the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and related policy reports, as well as any published metrics on antisemitism incidents, survivor reparations, and Holocaust-education initiatives.
Update · Feb 03, 2026, 04:58 PMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The State Department reaffirmed this commitment in a January 27, 2026 press release on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day, explicitly stating the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The release also highlights ongoing
US diplomatic capacity on
Holocaust issues and references related offices like the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues.
Where progress is concrete: Structural progress is evidenced by the existence and activity of SEAS (Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism) and the development of related guidelines and intergovernmental coordination mechanisms (Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism), which provide policy frameworks and engagement to combat antisemitism and support Holocaust memory.
Status assessment: While there is clear official rhetoric and institutional machinery, publicly verifiable, measurable outcomes (e.g., quantified declines in antisemitic incidents or demonstrable reparative actions for Holocaust survivors/heirs) are not presented in the available statements. Thus, the claim remains in_progress rather than complete or failed.
Source reliability note: The primary sourcing is official
U.S. government statements (State Department releases and related pages on SEAS and Holocaust issues), with corroboration from White House remarks on International Holocaust Remembrance Day. These sources are appropriate for assessing stated policy commitments rather than independent outcome data.

Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence of progress includes official statements and commemorations on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day from the State Department and White House reaffirming these commitments. There is no publicly documented, outcome-based completion with measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents or formal reparative actions tied to this pledge. Key milestones cited are the January 27, 2026 statements; no completion date is provided and independent impact verification is not shown in the sources. Source reliability is high for official policy stances, but independent, outcome-focused data would be needed to assess real-world impact and progress against the completion condition.

The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The State Department press release (January 27, 2026) explicitly commits to these aims as ongoing policy priorities.
Update · Feb 03, 2026, 10:54 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress to date: On
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026,
U.S. officials reaffirmed a commitment to counter antisemitism worldwide and to champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, in a State Department press release and related statements from the White House and other U.S. offices. The messages emphasize ongoing diplomatic, educational, and commemorative work rather than a completed program.
What progress exists toward the completion condition: There is no publicly announced, discrete completion metric with a defined target date. Anti-Semitic incidents in the United States and globally remain an ongoing challenge, with public statistics showing continued violence and harassment in various contexts, which current U.S. statements acknowledge but do not claim to have fully resolved.
Dates and milestones: The January 2026 International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements mark an annual reaffirmation of policy, not a finite completion date.
Reliability and sourcing note: The core claim and its commitments come from official U.S. government communications (State Department and White House) dated January 2026, which provide authoritative statements on policy direction. Supplementary context on antisemitic incidents is drawn from FBI/Justice data and civil rights analyses, illustrating ongoing challenges without signaling a finished policy milestone.
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 11:07 PMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: A Presidential Message on International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026) reiterates that the administration will "direct the Federal Government to use all appropriate legal tools to combat the scourge of
anti-Semitism" and will remain a champion for
Jewish Americans and memory. The State Department’s JUST Act framework continues to monitor and report on countries’ restitution progress under the Prague/Terezin Declarations, illustrating ongoing accountability and advocacy rather than a single milestone.
Completion status: There is no single completion date. The JUST Act report outlines ongoing country-by-country work on restitution and education, indicating continued activity and gaps rather than finalization. Independent institutions such as the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum likewise emphasize ongoing education and remembrance as persistent, long-term commitments.
Milestones and dates: Documented items include the 2026 White House message reaffirming anti-Semitism countermeasures and memory defense, and the ongoing JUST Act reporting cadence (annual/periodic updates) covering 46 countries and various restitution pathways. These reflect process-driven progress rather than a one-off completion.
Source reliability note: Primary sources are official government outputs (White House briefings/statements, State Department JUST Act reports) and corroborating context from the
US Holocaust Memorial Museum, supporting a careful, nonpartisan view of steady progress with persistent gaps.
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 09:06 PMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The
U.S. government has publicly reaffirmed its commitments through statements around
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (State Department and White House), emphasizing ongoing work to counter antisemitism and preserve Holocaust memory. There are concrete policy documents and public messaging from the State Department’s Office of the Special Envoy for Monitor and Combat Antisemitism and related follow-ups, alongside presidential statements underscoring memory preservation and resilience. Domestic data show a sharp rise in antisemitic incidents in the U.S. in 2023, with 1,832 single-bias
anti-Jewish hate crimes reported to the FBI, which complicates assessments of “worldwide” progress and suggests that countermeasures face contemporary challenges (DOJ/FBI data; ADL analysis).
Evidence of completion vs. ongoing status: There is no verifiable evidence that the claim has been completed globally or that measurable, globally uniform reductions in antisemitic incidents have been achieved. Public U.S. actions establish a framework—policy articulation, international engagement, and memory-preservation efforts—but there is no documented completion date or universal set of milestones demonstrating worldwide incident reduction or reparative remedies at Holocaust survivors/heirs on a global scale.
Milestones and dates: Key publicly available milestones include International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements from U.S. government channels (late January 2026), and ongoing official programs through the Office of the Special Envoy for Monitor and Combat Antisemitism and related policy briefings. Domestic indicators (FBI hate crime statistics for 2023) show rising antisemitic incidents, signaling that progress is uneven and requires sustained, targeted action to meet the stated goals.
Reliability note: Primary sources are U.S. official statements and federal crime statistics from DOJ/FBI and reputable civil society analyses (e.g., ADL). These sources are appropriate for assessing policy commitments and measurable outcomes; however, the absence of a single global metric or completion date means judgments must rely on progression of policy actions and converging crime data rather than a clear end-state.
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 07:45 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The State Department reaffirmed the pledge in a January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement, explicitly affirming that the
U.S. will “always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory” (State Department press release). The same period saw the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism (endorsed by numerous governments and international bodies) published and promoted by the Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism, signaling a formal international framework and cross-border cooperation (State Department page).
What remains in progress or uncertain: Concrete, internationally measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents and tangible reparative remedies for Holocaust survivors and heirs are not clearly quantified or publicly archived as completed milestones. The guidelines provide a non-binding framework and endorsement list; they do not itself guarantee numerical incident reductions or specific survivor reparations programs. Additional progress indicators (e.g., enacted legislation, funding allocations, survivor compensation cases) are not detailed in the cited materials and require ongoing monitoring (State Department pages, White House statement).
Dates and milestones: Key items include the July 2024 Buenos Aires launch of the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism and the November 2025 endorsements by a broad coalition of states and organizations, followed by renewed U.S. statements in January 2026 (State Department pages). The White House presidential message also reiterates the administration’s commitment to combating antisemitism and defending Holocaust memory on International Holocaust Remembrance Day (White House, Jan. 27, 2026).
Source reliability note: The primary sources are official U.S. government pages (State Department and White House) and reflect formal policy pronouncements and international guideline efforts. While these establish intent and frameworks, they provide limited empirical data on incident reductions or survivor reparations, necessitating cautious interpretation of “progress” as policy development and signaling rather than completed outcomes (State Department, White House).
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 04:58 PMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence shows the
U.S. has codified this aim in policy frameworks and public messaging, indicating a long-term, systemic approach rather than a single completed action. The May 2023 U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism outlines over 100 actions across federal agencies to counter antisemitism, signaling ongoing implementation across government and society. International and commemorative expressions—such as
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements from the State Department and the White House—confirm continued emphasis on memory, education, and countering antisemitism, but do not by themselves quantify nationwide reductions in antisemitic incidents. The Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism (2024) and ensuing endorsements show multilateral efforts to address antisemitism and memory preservation abroad, reinforcing the claim’s international dimension. Overall, progress exists in policy design, diplomacy, and public messaging, but tangible, verifiable reductions in antisemitism and reparative remedies for survivors remain incomplete and ongoing.
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 03:09 PMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States vowed to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department issued an International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement on 2026-01-27 reaffirming this pledge, and the department maintains offices (e.g., Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues) that oversee Holocaust-related policy and outreach.
Current status: The pledge appears as ongoing official rhetoric and institutional activity rather than a finished program with publicly verified outcomes. No publicly released metrics or reparations programs demonstrably reduce antisemitic incidents or permanently remedy survivors’ claims as of 2026-02-02.
Dates and milestones: The key public milestone is the 2026-01-27 State Department statement. Related offices and commemorations exist but no date-certain completion has been announced.
Reliability of sources: The primary source is a State Department press statement, a direct articulation of policy. Independent corroboration with quantified impact data or external evaluations is limited in the available material.
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 01:28 PMin_progress
Restatement: The claim asserts that
the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence of progress exists in official
U.S. government actions and public commitments that align with these goals, including a framework and ongoing policy initiatives promoted by the State Department and the White House (State.gov, International Holocaust Remembrance Day; WhiteHouse.gov, Presidential Message, 2026). The administration has publicly advanced concrete mechanisms—such as the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism and sustained emphasis on Holocaust remembrance and survivor support—demonstrating a structured approach rather than a one-off pledge (State.gov, Global Guidelines; State.gov, Anti-Semitism policy pages). Milestones and dates include the 2024
Buenos Aires launch of the Guidelines and 2025–2026 actions to amplify anti-antisemitism work and survivor assistance (State.gov; WhiteHouse.gov). Reliability note: these are official government statements and policy documents, which reliably reflect intent and programmatic steps, though they do not yet quantify a universal, measurable reduction in antisemitic incidents worldwide (State.gov; WhiteHouse.gov). Overall, while substantial and ongoing, the claim is best characterized as in_progress given the absence of a single completed milestone and the continuous nature of the policy work (completion condition remains contingent on demonstrable, cumulative impact).
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 11:57 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. It frames this as an ongoing policy aim with no fixed completion date. The assessment therefore tracks progress rather than a completed milestone.
Public
U.S. government statements corroborate ongoing emphasis on these commitments. The State Department’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day release reiterates that the U.S. will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of
Holocaust memory. A White House Presidential Message similarly reaffirms sustained focus on combating antisemitism and preserving Holocaust memory.
There is evidence of policy framing and programmatic intent, but no publicly published, internationally verifiable completion date or set of quantified milestones shown to demonstrably reduce antisemitic incidents across all regions. The emphasis from both the State Department and White House signals ongoing actions rather than a concluded program.
Independent antisemitism indicators suggest ongoing challenges rather than universal progress. External analyses (e.g., ADL reporting on global antisemitism and the
J7 initiative’s findings) document continued incidents and rising trends in several countries, underscoring that the promise remains aspirational without a clearly defined global metric of success.
Overall, official statements establish a continued policy posture without a fixed end date, while external data highlight persistent antisemitism and the need for measurable progress. The reliability of sources ranges from official government statements to independent incident-tracking organizations, which should be weighed together to gauge progress.
Follow-up should occur when the administration publishes concrete, verifiable milestones (e.g., quantified reductions in antisemitic incidents, reparative actions for survivors/heirs, and documented Holocaust-education/memory-preservation efforts).

Restatement and context: The claim asserts that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Public
U.S. statements from January 2026—including a State Department International Holocaust Remembrance Day release and a White House Presidential Message—confirm this pledge as a policy stance and ongoing commitment tied to memory and justice initiatives. The Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) provides the mechanism for implementing related policy and diplomacy (SEHI materials).
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 04:47 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress exists in official policy statements and institutional structures created to advance these aims. The State Department released a formal statement on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day promising ongoing efforts to counter antisemitism, support survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory (State Dept IHREM Day release, 2026-01-27). The White House also issued a presidential message reaffirming commitment to combat
anti-Semitism and to honoring Holocaust memory (White House, 2026-01-27).
Ongoing mechanisms and alliances support these aims, including the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) within the State Department, which coordinates restitution, remembrance, and Holocaust-education efforts and engages multilaterally with bodies like the IHRA and the Arolsen Archives (SEHI overview, State Dept pages).
Concerning measurable outcomes, there is no public, dated completion target or universally quantified milestone indicating that antisemitic incidents internationally have been demonstrably reduced or that survivors/heirs have received new reparative remedies on a broad scale. The available official materials describe ongoing programs, bilateral negotiations, and remembrance activities rather than a finished, date-stamped deliverable (State Dept IHREM Day release; SEHI overview).
Reliability note: The sources are official statements from the U.S. Department of State and the White House, which reliably reflect the administration’s stated policy posture and institutional capabilities. While they establish intent and ongoing effort, they do not provide independent verification of incident reductions or completion of reparative actions beyond described programs and partnerships (State Dept, White House official pages).
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 02:39 AMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States commits to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The State Department reaffirmed this stance in a January 27, 2026 press statement on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day, highlighting ongoing
U.S. efforts to counter antisemitism and protect Holocaust memory. The government has an established Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism (SEAS), which coordinates U.S. policy abroad and advances measures to monitor and combat antisemitism globally. The broader framework includes the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism and related policy mechanisms that guide international actions and reporting.
Current status: As of February 1, 2026, there is evidence of structural and policy-level initiatives (SEAS activities, interagency coordination, and public commitments) but no public, final completion of a single, codified set of milestones proving universal reduction of antisemitic incidents or full reparative remedies for Holocaust survivors and heirs. Progress appears to be ongoing, with continued emphasis on education, memory preservation, and international partnerships.
Reliability note: The primary source is the U.S. Department of State’s official statement and agency pages detailing SEAS and counter-antisemitism policy; these are high-reliability sources for official government positions. Supplementary context from White House and policy analyses corroborates the overall framework, though timelines for measurable international incident reductions remain unspecified.
Update · Feb 02, 2026, 12:51 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence of progress to date: official
U.S. statements from January 2026 reaffirm the commitment, including the State Department’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day release and a White House presidential message. Additional official remarks from U.S. officials and embassies in late January 2026 reiterate the pledge and emphasize Holocaust remembrance and human dignity. There is no publicly disclosed, verifiable policy with measurable outcomes tied to these commitments as of 2026-02-01. The materials primarily demonstrate rhetoric and reaffirmation rather than published milestones or impact metrics.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 10:40 PMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department and White House publicly reaffirmed these commitments around
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (January 27, 2026). The State Department issued a formal release reiterating the pledge, and the White House published a presidential message emphasizing remembrance and resilience. These actions demonstrate policy continuity and public messaging rather than a quantified implementation.
What progress exists toward completion: There is no published metric showing a measurable reduction in antisemitic incidents worldwide tied to a specific program, nor a defined reparative remedies program for Holocaust survivors and heirs with milestones. The administration references ongoing policy tools, including the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism and state department guidelines, as mechanisms to advance these goals, but no discrete completion date is given.
Key dates and milestones: January 27, 2026 marks the public reaffirmation by State Department and White House on International Holocaust Remembrance Day. The broader framework includes the 2023 National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism and related 2025–2026 policy materials, which structure ongoing accountability and cross-agency action.
Reliability and incentives: The sources are official, high-quality, and reflect
U.S. government incentives to project sustained opposition to antisemitism and to preserve Holocaust memory through education and memory-preserving initiatives. Because explicit completion criteria or incident-reduction targets are not published, status remains in an ongoing implementation phase rather than a completed program.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 08:39 PMin_progress
Restatement: The claim is that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence shows ongoing
US policy commitments and programs, including high-level statements on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day from State and the White House, and formal reporting under the JUST Act tracking restitution progress for survivors and heirs. Progress indicators include annual JUST Act reporting, establishment and activities of the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues, and budget/funding movements to combat antisemitism. However, there is no completed, universal measure or timeline indicating full fulfillment; actions are incremental and evaluative rather than conclusive. Reliability: primary government sources (State Department, White House) provide direct statements of intent and programmatic updates, though some subsidiary pages require archival access or reflect ongoing administrative processes.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 07:10 PMin_progress
What the claim states:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The State Department reiterated this commitment in a January 2026 International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement, explicitly underscoring ongoing efforts to counter antisemitism and defend Holocaust memory (State Department, Jan 2026). Separately, the
U.S. has promoted and expanded international frameworks such as the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, launched in 2024 and endorsed by dozens of countries and organizations, with ongoing updates through 2025 (State Department guidance page). The White House and other agencies have publicized the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (May 2023), which remains a benchmark for policy actions and has driven hundreds of executive actions and societal outreach (DOJ/Hate Crimes summaries).
Completion status: There is no published, verifiable completion of all components (measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents worldwide, formal reparative remedies for Holocaust survivors/heirs, or universal preservation/education milestones) as of 2026-02-01. What exists are sustained commitments, recurring commemorations, and expanding frameworks with endorsed guidelines and ongoing actions, rather than a finalized set of completed measures.
Dates and milestones: Key milestones include the 2023
U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, the 2024
Buenos Aires launch of the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism (endorsed by the U.S. and multiple partners), and annual
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements (notably January 2026). Endorsements list includes numerous countries and organizations, signaling international alignment around the guidelines (State Department pages).
Source reliability note: The core claims derive from official U.S. government outlets (State Department pages and White House materials) and corroborating reporting on related policy frameworks. These sources are primary, official communications outlining policy directions and ongoing commitments, with consistent emphasis on countering antisemitism and safeguarding Holocaust memory. While they show policy intent and structure, they do not yet provide a single independent metric demonstrating full completion of all aspects of the stated promise.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 04:43 PMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory, as part of ongoing policy.
Evidence exists of formal, multi-year
U.S. government efforts reinforcing these aims, including the 2023
U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism and ongoing diplomacy and commemoration activities.
Progress on countering antisemitism: The National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism—coordinated across multiple agencies—outlines a four-pillar framework (awareness, safety and security for
Jewish communities, countering normalization of antisemitism, and cross-community solidarity). The White House and Department of Justice cite this strategy as the core blueprint and have pursued related actions, including public messaging and interagency coordination, since 2023 (DOJ resource page; White House strategy materials).
Evidence of actions addressing Holocaust memory and survivors’ rights: The State Department’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements (2026) reiterate commitment to counter antisemitism, defend Holocaust memory, and support survivors and heirs. The annual
Days of Remembrance activities and related proclamations (e.g., 2025–2026 actions) likewise emphasize remembrance, education, and risk reduction for antisemitic threats.
These public statements signal ongoing policy emphasis, though they do not by themselves demonstrate universal, measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents. Sources indicate high-level commitment and structured policy scaffolding, rather than a single metric of worldwide impact. As of 2026-02-01, the completion condition has not been publicly satisfied; the effort appears ongoing.
Overall assessment: The United States has established and continued a formal, multi-agency framework to counter antisemitism, support Holocaust survivors and heirs, and preserve Holocaust memory. Public evidence suggests ongoing actions and programs, but not yet a verifiable global completion; the status remains in_progress.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 02:52 PMin_progress
What the claim states:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. This framing appears in official
U.S. statements from early 2026, including a State Department release and a White House presidential message on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026). The language reinforces a continuing policy emphasis rather than a specific, time-bound program.
Evidence of progress or actions: Public U.S. government statements assert an ongoing commitment. The State Department press statement reiterates the pledge to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory (Jan 27, 2026). The White House presidential message similarly draws on this commitment as part of commemorations and policy priorities. A separate Secretary of State statement (Rubio) on the same day likewise emphasizes these aims as core diplomatic messaging.
Assessment of completion status: There is no publicly announced end state or quantified milestone demonstrating complete achievement. The materials reflect a continuing policy stance and rhetoric rather than a completed set of measurable actions with defined success metrics. No concrete, independently verifiable reductions in antisemitic incidents or reparative remedies are documented in the cited sources as of 2026-02-01.
Dates and milestones: The key dates are January 27, 2026 (International Holocaust Remembrance Day) when the statements were issued. The White House message and State Department release frame the policy as ongoing, without a projected completion date or milestone schedule specified in the sources.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 01:02 PMin_progress
Claim restated:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: A January 27, 2026 State Department release and a parallel White House statement reaffirm the
U.S. commitment to counter antisemitism, support Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory as part of
International Holocaust Remembrance Day commemorations. The official documents signal policy orientation and rhetoric but do not specify new, measurable actions or milestones.
Assessment of completion status: There are no public, dated milestones or programs announced as completed that demonstrably reduce antisemitic incidents internationally or provide reparative remedies to survivors and heirs. The statements describe ongoing commitments, not a completed, time-bound set of measures.
Dates and milestones: The primary reference is International Holocaust Remembrance Day communications dated January 27, 2026. No projected completion date is provided, and no concrete performance metrics are published in the cited materials.
Reliability and context: The sources are official government communications (State Department and White House), which reliably reflect policy intent but offer limited detail on implementation or measurable outcomes. Given the absence of specific actions or timelines, the status is best characterized as continuing commitment rather than completed policy changes.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 11:45 AMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence to date shows high-level, ongoing policy commitments rather than a completed program. The State Department’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement (Jan 27, 2026) explicitly affirms that the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory, signaling a continuing diplomatic stance (State Department press release).
There are related institutional mechanisms that mirror the claim’s components, including the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI), which since 1999 has pursued Holocaust-era asset restitution, compensation for
Nazi-era wrongs, and Holocaust remembrance—indicating ongoing, structured policy work rather than a discrete, completed action (State Department SEHI pages).
Budget and legislative activity in early 2026 further illustrate progress in backing these aims. Reports describe a 2026 funding package increasing dedicated antisemitism/Holocaust issues spending, including explicit support for the antisemitism envoy to work with partners to address Holocaust denial and antisemitism online and in
AI, and to brief Congress on plans to tackle these issues (
Jewish Insider, Jan 2026).
These developments demonstrate sustained political will and resource allocation, but there is no published completion date or clear, independently verifiable milestone showing a measurable reduction in antisemitic incidents worldwide or a final restoration/remediation of Holocaust-era claims. The sources frame ongoing policy and funding trajectories rather than a finished program, so progress remains in_progress rather than_complete. Reliability: State Department statements provide authoritative official commitments; secondary reporting from Jewish Insider offers context on funding, while White House materials corroborate executive-level emphasis on combating antisemitism and preserving memory (White House Presidential Message, Jan 27, 2026).
Reliability note: While the core claim is echoed in official statements, measurable outcomes (incident reductions, restitution disbursements, education/preservation milestones) are not yet documented in peer-reviewed or government-wide progress reports in the cited sources.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 09:35 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: On
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026,
U.S. officials reiterated commitments to counter antisemitism and defend Holocaust memory in statements from the State Department and White House, signaling continued political emphasis at the executive level (State Department release; Presidential Message). The U.S. has also advanced formal, non-binding global guidelines on countering antisemitism and maintains a National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism that directs actions across federal agencies (Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism; U.S. National Strategy resource).
Policy actions and milestones: The administration has pursued measures to monitor and reduce antisemitic incidents and to provide remedies related to Holocaust memory, survivors, and heirs through legislative and regulatory channels (Federal Register notice on Additional Measures to Combat Anti-Semitism; White House actions). The National Strategy outlines numerous actions across four pillars aiming to raise awareness, strengthen protections, and partner with civil society and international partners, though most items are ongoing with target dates spread over 2023–2026 and beyond (Justice Department resource; ADL action tracker).
Current standing: There is clear institutional emphasis and a growing set of formal actions, but no single completed milestone or universal metric demonstrating global reduction in antisemitic incidents or definitive reparative remedies for all survivors/heirs. The claim remains in_progress as ongoing programs and policies continue to be implemented, measured, and updated (official guidance and action trackers).
Source reliability note: The core statements come from official U.S. government channels (State Department, White House) and corroborating federal and civil-society trackers, which provides high relevance and reliability for policy progression status; independent outlets offer supportive context but should be weighed against primary sources (State Department release; White House statements; Federal Register; National Strategy documents).
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 04:38 AMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The article’s wording is echoed in official
U.S. statements tied to
International Holocaust Remembrance Day in January 2026. Evidence thus far comes from formal U.S. government messaging rather than a single, verificable policy milestone.
Evidence of progress: The State Department released an International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement emphasizing ongoing U.S. efforts to counter antisemitism, support Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory. The White House and U.S. embassies published related messages, citing the administration’s commitment and the involvement of the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and other relevant bureaus.
Assessment of completion status: There are explicit commitments and ongoing institutional structures (e.g., Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues) cited as vehicles for these goals, but no publicly available, independently verifiable metrics or a formal completion date showing that antisemitic incidents have demonstrably declined worldwide or that reparative remedies have been delivered at scale. The completion condition—measurable reductions, concrete remedies, and documented preservation/education milestones—remains in_progress or unverified as of 2026-01-31.
Notes on sources and reliability: The claims and progress cited come from official U.S. government communications (State Department press release for International Holocaust Remembrance Day, White House and embassy remarks). These are primary sources for policy intent but do not by themselves constitute independent verification of outcomes. Given the lack of publicly released metrics, the assessment leans toward in_progress pending transparent progress reporting.
Update · Feb 01, 2026, 02:50 AMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department issued an International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement on 2026-01-27 affirming the pledge and highlighting ongoing
U.S. commitments, including the stated goal to counter antisemitism worldwide and defend Holocaust memory (State Dept, 2026-01-27). The White House and other U.S. government outlets have echoed these themes in related communications around the same period (White House, 2026-01-27; State press release). The administration also references the role of the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and related entities as part of the framework supporting these aims (State Dept, 2026-01-27).
Progress toward completion: There are policy-level statements and institutional structures, but no published, specific metrics or timelines demonstrating measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally, nor documented reparative remedies for Holocaust survivors and heirs, nor quantified funding for preservation/education efforts tied to the claim. The completion condition requires measurable policies or actions with demonstrable results, which are not detailed in the cited materials (State Dept, 2026-01-27). Absent concrete milestones or evaluation reports, the claim remains in the policy-adoption and program-implementation phase rather than completed.
Milestones and dates: The primary milestone available is the January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement from the State Department, which restates the pledge but does not publish a completion timeline. Additional related communications from the White House and U.S. embassies abroad reinforce the framing, but do not specify targets or completion dates for reductions in antisemitism or reparative actions (State Dept; White House; Embassy statements, 2026).
Reliability and incentives: The primary sourcing is official U.S. government communications, which are appropriate for assessing stated policy aims. Given the incentive structure, the administration has visibility on antisemitism countermeasures and Holocaust memory initiatives, but translating rhetoric into measurable outcomes will rely on forthcoming policies, funding, and program evaluations. Cross-checks with independent, non-governmental analyses would be needed to gauge real-world impact beyond diplomatic commitments (State Dept 2026-01-27; White House 2026-01-27).
Follow-up note: Monitor for a dedicated progress report or annual metrics from the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and related bureaus, including any quantified reductions in antisemitic incidents, reparative measures for survivors and heirs, and funded preservation/education programs. A follow-up should be scheduled when such metrics are published or when concrete milestones are announced.

Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department released a formal
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement on January 27, 2026 reiterating the commitment to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory (State Department, 2026-01-27).
Context and ongoing initiatives: The department also maintains the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, launched in 2024 and endorsed by numerous countries and multilateral bodies, outlining best practices for policy action, education, data collection, and enforcement (State Department, Global Guidelines page).
Progress indicators: The existence of official policy instruments and ongoing commemorations indicates continued
U.S. engagement and international coordination. There are no publicly published, quantified metrics showing a measured reduction in antisemitic incidents or specific reparative actions for Holocaust survivors beyond guideline-based work.
Reliability and constraints: The sources are official U.S. government communications, which are authoritative for policy framing. Tangible impact will depend on budgets, program implementation, and cross-agency collaboration, which are not yet evidenced by published outcome metrics.
Assessment note: Given the absence of concrete, independently verifiable milestones or completed reparative actions, the claim is best characterized as in_progress at this time.
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 10:41 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress on countering antisemitism: The State Department and Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism have advanced global guidelines and definitional work, including the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism and IHRA working definition adoption, with ongoing implementation across diplomacy and international outreach (SEAS pages; IHRA-related content; State Dept SEAS).
Domestic and international policy actions: The White House and State Department have pursued formal measures and diplomatic guidance since 2024–2025, emphasizing vigorous combatting of antisemitism, including mechanisms for monitoring, education, and accountability, as part of a broader anti-hate and anti-discrimination agenda (White House action 2025; State Dept remarks on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026).
Advances toward justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs: The JUST Act framework remains a central instrument, with the State Department publishing country-by-country reports and highlighting restitution and compensation efforts as essential components of justice for survivors and heirs (JUST Act Report page; State Dept).
Evidence of ongoing education and remembrance efforts: International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements and Holocaust education initiatives emphasize remembrance, research, and dissemination of accurate history, including support for archival access and education guidelines endorsed by international actors (State Dept remarks; ITF/USHMM-aligned education guidelines).
Source reliability and limitations: The key claims rely on official
U.S. government releases and departmental pages (State Department, White House), which document policy intentions and progress but do not always provide uniform, independently verifiable metrics for incident reduction or restitution outcomes; ongoing tracking is therefore warranted (State Dept SEAS; JUST Act Report; White House action).
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 08:36 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The United States maintains the Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism (SEAS) to coordinate global anti-antisemitism efforts, and has continued public diplomacy and reporting through SEAS and related bureaus. The White House and State Department have publicly reaffirmed these aims in
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements and related policy actions.
Current status and milestones: Policy infrastructure and commemorative messaging continue, including formal declarations and policy frameworks such as the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism. However, there is no single, universally verifiable completion milestone; progress is multi-year and varies by jurisdiction, with ongoing programs and investigations into effectiveness.
Source reliability and interpretation: Primary sources (State Department SEAS materials, White House statements) describe ongoing initiatives rather than a final completion date. Independent reporting corroborates sustained, multi-year efforts and commitments but also notes the difficulty of measuring worldwide antisemitism reductions or universal reparative remedies. The evidence supports continued progress and commitment, not a finished, all-encompassing completion.
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 07:01 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States commits to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The current public framing centers on annual, high‑level statements rather than a single, time‑bound completion promise.
Evidence of progress exists in official
US statements and ongoing policy work. On January 27, 2026, the State Department reaffirmed the pledge in a formal
International Holocaust Remembrance Day release, linking it to broader efforts on antisemitism, survivor justice, and memory preservation (State Dept press release). The White House and U.S. Embassy communications similarly emphasize remembrance, education, and policy commitments in related materials that accompany the same observance period.
Implementation actions are ongoing but not yet codified into measurable, internationally verifiable outcomes. The United States continues to operate the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) to promote restitution, combat anti‑Semitism, and support Holocaust education and remembrance. SEHI maintains engagement with multilateral bodies (e.g., IHRA) and bilateral dialogues on restitution, archives access, and education; these activities constitute policy work rather than a quantified incident‑reduction program.
Evidence of specific milestones includes SEHI’s reporting and advocacy tied to the Just Act framework (JUST Act, 2017–2020 reporting cycles), participation in international commissions and archives projects, and ongoing support for education and commemoration efforts. However, there is no publicly released, comprehensive measured report showing a worldwide decline in antisemitic incidents or a universal set of reparative payments completed since 2026 began. The balance of sources indicates persistent, incremental progress rather than a finalized, fully demonstrable completion.
Source reliability and context: The primary basis for the claim’s present status is official US government communications (State Dept, White House) around International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026, which explicitly reiterate the commitment and outline ongoing policy activity. These are authoritative for stated policy intentions, but they do not alone demonstrate quantified progress toward the claim’s measurable completion conditions. Independent civil society and academic outlets corroborate ongoing restoration, education, and memory initiatives, but independent metrics for worldwide impact remain limited in public releases.
Follow‑up note: Given the absence of a defined completion date and the absence of a published, comprehensive progress dashboard, the status remains best described as in_progress, pending concrete, verifiable reductions in antisemitic incidents and formal reparations or education milestones with externally verifiable metrics.
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 04:38 PMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The
U.S. has operationalized the claim through formal policy frameworks, notably the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (May 2023) and subsequent White House actions that outline a whole-of-society approach to counter antisemitism and support
Holocaust memory. The State Department and White House have publicly reaffirmed commitments to Holocaust remembrance, education, and memory preservation (State.gov, 2023–2025; White House, 2025).
Evidence on completion status: There is no public, independently verifiable metric demonstrating a global reduction in antisemitic incidents attributed to U.S. policy, nor a comprehensive, completed reparations program for Holocaust survivors and heirs at the international scale. U.S. actions emphasize awareness, reporting, and support for survivors, and they advocate for preservation and education of Holocaust memory; however, concrete, globally comparable metrics of impact remain limited or undeclared (JUST Act report; WJRO notes).
Dates and milestones: Key milestones include the 2023 National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, 2024–2025 federal remembrance activities, and 2025 White House measures to combat antisemitism. Congressional and NGO reporting on restitution indicates ongoing efforts to pursue compensation for survivors and heirs, with related policy developments (HEAR Act-related) continuing. These establish continuity and policy direction without a declared, completed outcome.
Reliability note: Sources are official U.S. government publications and reputable policy analyses describing framework, commitments, and programmatic actions rather than independent outcome evaluations. The policy documents reliably reflect stated intent and planned actions, but independent verification of international impact or closure of memory/education objectives is limited in public records.
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 02:37 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department issued an International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement on January 27, 2026 reaffirming the commitment, with ongoing policy actions tied to Holocaust remembrance and countering antisemitism. The Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) continues to implement related policies, including restitution, remembrance, and education activities, as reflected in 2024–2026
U.S. government briefings and commemorations. The White House also published a presidential message reinforcing the U.S. stance on Holocaust remembrance and
anti-Semitism countermeasures in the same timeframe.
Completion status: No final completion milestone is identified; the claim describes enduring, structural policy commitments rather than a discrete project with a defined end date. Evidence indicates ongoing implementation and public reaffirmations, consistent with an in-progress status.
Dates and milestones: Notable milestones include January 2026 International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements and ongoing SEHI activities since its inception in 1999, with continued emphasis across administrations. These reflect sustained policy and programmatic effort rather than closure.
Reliability note: Primary sources are official U.S. government statements (State Department and White House), which provide direct evidence of intent and actions. While they confirm commitments and programs, they do not offer quantified global impact metrics; independent assessments could supplement understanding of effectiveness.
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 12:54 PMin_progress
What the claim states:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The
U.S. has formalized a structured, government-wide approach to counter antisemitism, including the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (2023) and subsequent State Department reporting on international efforts to combat antisemitism. The Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism (endorsed by dozens of states and organizations in 2024) and related multilateral engagements reflect ongoing policy development and international cooperation.
Progress toward completing the promise: While there are concrete milestones and ongoing programs, there is no single, public completion date or end-state; the policy framework emphasizes continued implementation across agencies and international partners, with measurable indicators still evolving.
Redress for survivors and memory: The administration highlights justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs and memory preservation as policy aims, but specific, legally binding reparative remedies or comprehensive international compensation mechanisms remain fragmented and not publicly codified as of early 2026. Overall, the landscape shows sustained momentum, not a final completion.
Reliability note: The sources center on official U.S. policy documents and White House releases, which indicate direction and ongoing action but do not establish a fixed completion date or universally applicable remediation program.
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 11:15 AMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The
U.S. publicly reaffirmed these commitments in its
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements (State Department, 2026-01-27). Additionally, the administration has touted international guidelines and coordinated anti-antisemitism efforts, including the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism (State Department, 2024) and related policy actions described by White House measures to combat antisemitism (White House, 2025). These efforts encompass education, awareness, and international collaboration to address antisemitism and Holocaust remembrance.
Concrete developments and milestones: The State Department has officially endorsed and promoted international frameworks and alliances aimed at countering antisemitism, with continued emphasis on supporting Holocaust survivors and preserving memory (State Department pages 2024–2026). The White House and U.S. agencies have issued policy statements and actions aimed at prosecuting or addressing antisemitic actions, and legislative activity (e.g., antisemitism-related bills) has progressed in Congress (White House actions, 2025; Congress.gov, 2025–2026).
Assessment of completion status: There is clear evidence of sustained policy posture and formal initiatives, but no publicly documented, universally verifiable global reduction in antisemitic incidents or a final closure of reparative processes for all Holocaust survivors and heirs. The completion condition—measurable worldwide reductions, comprehensive legal remedies, and universally verifiable preservation/education outcomes—remains in_progress, as policies are ongoing and evolving.
Reliability and caveats: Primary sources are official U.S. government statements and actions (State Department, White House, DOJ references), which are authoritative for policy intent but may not by themselves demonstrate global impact. The sources reflect incentive-driven governance aimed at countering antisemitism and preserving memory, with gradual implementation over time. The absence of a concrete, end-date completion milestone further supports labeling the status as in_progress.
Conclusion: The United States has reiterated and begun implementing a framework of policies intended to counter antisemitism, support Holocaust survivors, and defend memory, but measurable, globally-ranked completion is not yet evidenced. Ongoing policy developments and international coordination remain essential to achieving the stated goals.

The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: Official
U.S. statements published around
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026 affirm the commitment. The State Department release reiterates that “The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory” (State Department, 2026-01-27). A parallel White House message on International Holocaust Remembrance Day also reinforces a sustained commitment to Holocaust memory and the dignity of all human beings (White House, 2026-01-27).
What has been completed or advanced: The public record shows ongoing ceremonial and policy-level commitments (annual commemorations, public statements, and the existence of dedicated Holocaust issues offices and dialogues cited by State). However, there are no publicly disclosed, independently verifiable milestones or metrics within the sources that demonstrate measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally, reparative remedies for survivors and heirs, or quantified preservation/education outcomes with a concrete completion date.
Current status and milestones: The claim remains declaratively supported by official statements and continuous normative actions, but lacks published, verifiable completion metrics or timelines. The absence of a defined completion date in the sources suggests ongoing, long-term efforts rather than a concluded program with a finite endpoint.
Reliability note: Sources are official U.S. government communications (State Department and White House) which establish policy intent but provide limited public detail on measurable outcomes or timelines. This limits the ability to confirm concrete progress beyond stated commitments and annual commemorations.
Follow-up verdict: Given the ongoing nature of commitments and lack of measurable completion data, the status is best described as in_progress.

Claim restatement:
The United States commits to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence exists in policy and diplomatic actions rather than a quantified reduction in incidents. The State Department publicly reaffirmed the three-part commitment on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026, framing ongoing diplomatic and educational work as central to this effort (State Dept press statement, 2026-01-27).
Concrete policy developments include the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, launched in 2024 and endorsed by numerous states and organizations, with a maintained endorsement list available as of 2025; these guidelines provide framework for monitoring, education, and anti-antisemitism measures (State Dept, 2024; endorsements page, 2025).
Additionally, the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues continues to pursue restitution and education initiatives, including urging governments on property restitution, compensation, and Holocaust education and remembrance programs (State Dept remarks and related materials, 2025–2026).
Source reliability: State Department pages provide the official articulation and documentation of policy aims and actions; these are supplemented by independent summaries from reputable outlets and the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum’s long-standing emphasis on education and remembrance. While the policy framework and advocacy are advancing, verifiable, centralized metrics showing a sustained global reduction in antisemitic incidents or completed reparations remain unavailable in the public record as of 2026-01-30.
Notes on incentives:
U.S. policy aligns counter-antisemitism with human rights and rule-of-law goals, while restitution efforts reflect commitments to survivors and heirs; these incentives support a multi-pronged, policy-based approach rather than a single milestone.
Update · Jan 31, 2026, 01:50 AMin_progress
Statement restatement: The claim asserts that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The State Department reiterated this commitment explicitly in the International Holocaust Remembrance Day message on January 27, 2026, underscoring ongoing
U.S. resolve to counter antisemitism and defend Holocaust memory (State Dept press release).
Evidence of progress: The U.S. continues active policy work through the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI), which advances restitution, survivor remedies, and education/remembering initiatives as part of its mandate (State Dept, SEHI pages). Additionally, the State Department’s Holocaust Issues policy coverage highlights ongoing events, advocacy, and bilateral dialogues (e.g., U.S.-Germany dialogue on Holocaust issues) that advance accountability, memory, and education goals (State Dept pages, 2025).
Assessment of completion status: No single, verifiable milestone demonstrates a complete resolution across all promised domains (
anti-Semitism reduction, survivor/heir remedies, and memory preservation) by a fixed date. Instead, there are ongoing programs, dialogues, and commemorations with recurring events and policy actions that collectively move toward the stated goals but do not constitute final completion. The evidence points to sustained activity and progressive steps rather than a completed program, as of the current date (State Dept statements and policy materials).
Reliability note: Primary sourcing comes from official U.S. government outlets (State Department pages and press releases) detailing policy posture and ongoing initiatives. Secondary items (e.g., related coverage) corroborate the existence of commemorations and bilateral dialogues but should be weighed against official records for scope and impact. Overall, the sources support the existence of a continuing U.S. effort, with measurable actions ongoing but no completed, end-state milestone documented to date.

Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department published an International Holocaust Remembrance Day press statement on January 27, 2026, reaffirming the United States’ commitment to counter antisemitism, support justice for survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory. The statement situates the pledge within an annual commemoration and references the broad structure of related offices. State Dept. press statement, 2026-01-27.
Status of completion: There are no measurable milestones or a stated timeline in the public release. The document signals intent and ongoing policy posture but does not describe concrete actions, funding, or deployment dates to verify completion of the promise. State Dept. press statement, 2026-01-27.
Milestones and dates: The article notes the commemoration of
International Holocaust Remembrance Day and cites the standard commitment, but it does not present new or specific actions with dates (e.g., policy deployments, funding cycles, or legislation). At present, milestones are not publicly enumerated beyond the rhetorical pledge. State Dept. press statement, 2026-01-27.
Source reliability and incentives: The primary source is an official
U.S. government press release from the State Department, a direct articulation of policy stance. While credible, it is a political statement of intent; its reliability rests on the department’s track record and subsequent actions. State Dept. press statement, 2026-01-27.
Bottom line: The claim is officially asserted and publicly reaffirmed, but as of 2026-01-30 there is no published, verifiable evidence of concrete measures, timelines, or completed actions that demonstrably reduce antisemitic incidents or provide reparative remedies beyond ongoing programmatic structures. In_progress. Follow-up date: 2026-07-27.
Update · Jan 30, 2026, 09:22 PMin_progress
Restating the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Public statements from
U.S. sources frame this as a continuing policy posture rather than a one-off action, with emphasis on anti‑antisemitism efforts and Holocaust remembrance in diplomacy and education.
Progress to date: The U.S. has established and updated frameworks intended to advance these goals, notably through the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (2023) and ongoing diplomacy, education, and memorial initiatives. Public briefings and presidential/multilateral messaging reaffirm the aim to counter antisemitism worldwide and to support
Holocaust memory through policy tools and funding where applicable. The January 2026 statements from State and White House communications reiterate commitment rather than reporting a single, completed package of actions.
Current status against the completion condition: There is no published, concrete, universally agreed completion milestone or calendar, nor a transparent, independently verifiable set of international antisemitism incident reductions tied to a fixed timeline. Measurable progress appears to rely on ongoing programs (education, counter‑extremism, survivor justice/heritage work) and periodic policy updates rather than a completed, final suite of actions. While the administration has signaled intent and directed federal tools toward countering antisemitism, progress remains in progress and subject to evolving policy priorities and implementation challenges.
Reliability and context: The core statements come from the U.S. Department of State and the White House, reinforced by a long‑running National Strategy framework. These sources reflect official policy orientation and diplomatic/educational commitments rather than independent audits of impact. Given the lack of a fixed completion date and the inherently gradual nature of international impact, interpretations should consider incentives shaping policy (demonstrating leadership, domestic political considerations, and foreign aid allocations) when evaluating progress.

Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
What progress has been made: The administration publicly reaffirmed this commitment for 2026 through State Department and White House statements surrounding
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026, signaling ongoing prioritization of antisemitism countermeasures and Holocaust memory (State Dept, 2026-01-27; White House, 2026-01-27).
Evidence of structural progress: The nomination and confirmation process for a new
U.S. Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism progressed in 2025, culminating in
Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun’s Senate confirmation in December 2025, which strengthens institutional capacity to pursue antisemitism policies (Senate/
Washington reporting, Dec 2025; JTA/COLlive coverage).
Concrete milestones and dates: Key milestones include the January 2026 official statements and the late-2025 envoy confirmation, intended to drive policy actions in 2026 and beyond. No independently verified data yet shows a reduction in antisemitic incidents or completed reparative measures that meet the stated completion condition.
Notes on reliability: Official U.S. government sources (State Department, White House) frame intent and capacity; supplemental reporting confirms envoy confirmation and ongoing implementation, but impact data are not yet published.
Bottom line: The claim is actively pursued with renewed official commitments and an empowered envoy, but as of 2026-01-30 there is no verified evidence of measurable reductions or completed reparative remedies. The situation remains in_progress pending future impact data.
Update · Jan 30, 2026, 04:51 PMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress includes the U.S. Department of State’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement (Jan 27, 2026), which explicitly commits to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The statement ties these commitments to broader
U.S. diplomacy and moral leadership, reinforcing ongoing policy stances rather than reporting a completed action.
Additional progress is reflected in Congress and executive-following efforts, such as the JUST Act reporting framework, which emphasizes justice for
Holocaust victims, survivors, and heirs and promotes reflection on practices to implement the Terezin Declaration; this demonstrates structural work toward addressing reparative justice and memory preservation (State Department JUST Act report to Congress). Civil society institutions like the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum also reinforce these aims by promoting education, remembrance, and prevention of antisemitism, though their role is supplementary to formal policy.
Overall, the claim appears to be an ongoing policy objective rather than a completed program. There is no single completion date or milestone list indicating full, verifiable fulfillment, but multiple, regularly updated efforts indicate continued work toward measurable anti-antisemitism actions, survivor reparations, and Holocaust-memory integrity.
Reliability note: The primary sources are official U.S. government statements (State Department press release) and formal reporting (JUST Act), supplemented by established institutions like the USHMM. While these sources establish intent and ongoing actions, they do not yet provide a single, consolidated metric of completion or a concrete timetable for measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally or for universal reparative remedies; ongoing monitoring is advisable.
Update · Jan 30, 2026, 03:00 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The claim is framed as an ongoing policy posture rather than a discrete, single-action deadline. Official statements repeatedly anchor the commitment in annual remembrance and strategic frameworks. Evidence suggests these are implemented through multi-agency guidelines and publicly endorsed policies rather than a finite completion date.
Update · Jan 30, 2026, 01:25 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress exists in the institutional framework the
U.S. has built: a national strategy to counter antisemitism released in 2023, and Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism issued and endorsed by multiple states and organizations in 2024 (SEAS and related State Department pages). These instruments establish a formal, ongoing U.S. government approach to monitoring antisemitism, supporting
Holocaust memory, and promoting education and remediative efforts (State Department, SEAS pages; US National Strategy document).
The White House and State Department have reiterated commitment to counter antisemitism in 2026 statements, including
International Holocaust Remembrance Day messages that reference countering antisemitism and defending memory (State Dept IHRO Remembrance Day release; White House remarks). Publicly visible, verifiable actions include the Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism (SEAS) activities and the Global Guidelines framework (State Department pages).
Evidence about measurable outcomes toward the completion condition is limited and not publicly consolidated: there is no widely reported, globally standardized metric showing a sustained drop in antisemitic incidents worldwide attributable to these policies, and no comprehensive reparative settlements or legal remedies disclosed for Holocaust survivors and heirs beyond
US domestic programs. International follow-through appears ongoing but not conclusively documented as completed as of 2026-01-30 (UN News coverage of Holocaust remembrance and antisemitism, 2026).
Dates and milestones of note include the 2023
U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, the 2024 Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism endorsement, and the 2026 International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements from the State Department and White House. These elements establish intent and ongoing activity, but concrete, comparable milestones (e.g., quantified incident reductions or survivor reparations) are not publicly published as of 2026-01-30. Overall reliability derives from primary government sources (State Department SEAS page; IHRO Remembrance Day release) complemented by UN reporting on antisemitism and Holocaust remembrance (UN News).
Update · Jan 30, 2026, 11:39 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. This reflects the January 27, 2026 State Department statement accompanying International Holocaust Remembrance Day. The pledge aligns with ongoing
U.S. policy rhetoric and institutional structures dedicated to Holocaust issues and antisemitism monitoring.
Evidence of progress: The U.S. has pursued formal mechanisms to advance these aims, notably through the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, which the State Department announced in 2024 and has since been endorsed by multiple countries and organizations. The Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism (SEAS) remains active, coordinating international efforts, policy guidance, and partnerships aimed at reducing antisemitism and promoting Holocaust memory. These elements indicate structured, measurable actions beyond rhetoric.
Assessment of completion status: While there are concrete policy products and international coalitions, there is no publicly reported, universal metric proving a worldwide reduction in antisemitic incidents nor a comprehensive, universal reparative mechanism for Holocaust survivors and heirs. Progress is ongoing and policy-oriented, with milestones such as the 2024 Global Guidelines and SEAS-driven initiatives, but the completion condition—demonstrable, universally verified reductions and reparations—has not been publicly achieved to date.
Source reliability and caveats: The primary source is the U.S. State Department’s official January 27, 2026 release on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day, which explicitly states the commitment. Supporting context comes from the SEAS office and the broader U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism and related State Department materials. Given the policy and diplomatic framing, findings reflect official aims and ongoing programs rather than a final, verifiable endpoint.
Update · Jan 30, 2026, 09:44 AMin_progress
Restatement of claim. The State Department’s January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement asserts that
the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress toward countering antisemitism internationally. The Department of State continues to articulate a whole-of-government approach through the Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism (SEAS), including global guidelines and remarks aimed at reducing antisemitism (SEAS materials; IHRE remarks). The administration also references ongoing policy frameworks aligned with counter-antisemitism goals.
Evidence of progress toward justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs. The
U.S. government maintains programs and advocacy focused on survivor rights and documentation through SEAS and related offices; concrete restitution actions are not presented as a single public metric, but the federal framework emphasizes reparative rights and memorial protections.
Evidence of progress toward preserving/educating about
Holocaust memory. The State Department’s commemoration efforts and associated guidance emphasize memory preservation and education, with SEAS supporting educational guidelines and counter-antisemitism actions intended to safeguard Holocaust memory.
Reliability and limits of sources. Official statements come from the State Department and SEAS. While these indicate ongoing commitments, they do not provide a unified progress dashboard or quantified reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally, making a single completion date unlikely.
Overall assessment. Given the ongoing policy infrastructure and public statements, the claim is best described as in_progress: the United States has reaffirmed commitments and taken steps consistent with countering antisemitism, supporting survivors, and preserving memory, but measurable, globally verifiable reductions or complete reparative actions have not been publicly completed or codified to date.
Update · Jan 30, 2026, 05:20 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. It ties these commitments to ongoing
U.S. policy and actions rather than a completed program with a fixed end date. The framing aligns with official rhetoric visible in U.S. government statements and policy documents summarized below.
Evidence of progress includes the May 25, 2023 release of the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, which outlines a whole-of-society approach with over 100 actions across executive agencies and civil society to counter antisemitism. The strategy provides a framework for increasing awareness, accountability, and policy coordination, and it has since guided subsequent agency actions and reports (e.g., Justice Department and State Department materials). Additionally, in 2024 the U.S. and partners advanced Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, indicating an international effort to standardize and promote anti-antisemitism measures. The January 27, 2026 State Department statement on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day reaffirms the commitment in a high-profile diplomatic setting.
There is no demonstrated, end-point completion date or fully completed set of measures that would indicate all promised actions have been finished. The claim’s completion condition—measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally, reparative remedies for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and maintained integrity of Holocaust memory—remains inherently contingent on ongoing implementation and reporting by multiple agencies. While some actions are underway and some international guidelines have been endorsed, concrete, globally verifiable progress in all three areas is not yet publicly consolidated in a single, verifiable progress report.
Notable milestones include the 2023 strategy release establishing pillars and actions, and 2024 adoption of Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, which signal policy momentum and international collaboration. The 2026 State Department International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement reinforces political commitment but does not by itself document completed outcomes. Given the breadth of the claim and the evolving nature of anti-antisemitism work, progress is real but uneven across domains and regions.
Source reliability: the core policy claim is anchored in official U.S. government channels (State Department statements and White House archival materials), with supplementary analysis from the Justice Department and think-tank assessments summarizing implementation progress. Reuters- or major-bureau sources corroborate the framing of the 2023 strategy and 2024 guidelines, though primary evidence for international incident reductions remains dispersed across multiple agencies and NGO reporting. Overall, sources indicate ongoing, policy-driven effort rather than a final, completed outcome.
Inference: In_progress. The claim is supported by documented policy initiatives and reiterated commitments, but a single, verifiable completion date or universal reduction in antisemitic incidents worldwide has not been publicly demonstrated as completed given the current public record.
Update · Jan 30, 2026, 03:09 AMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The State Department reaffirmed the commitment in its
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement (Jan 27, 2026), explicitly saying the
U.S. will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory. The department also maintains the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues to advance policy on restitution, compensation, and remembrance, demonstrating ongoing institutional focus on memory integrity and survivor/heir justice. Public interagency remembrance programs and commemorations further illustrate sustained implementation through 2025–2026.
Update · Jan 30, 2026, 01:41 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Public records show ongoing policy statements and programs rather than a final, completed plan as of 2026. Official actions include high-level reiterations of commitment on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day and the broader national strategy framework against antisemitism.
Update · Jan 29, 2026, 11:43 PMin_progress
Restatement of claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The State Department publicly reaffirmed this stance on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026), stating the
U.S. will “always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory” (State Dept press statement, 2026-01-27). This signals continued official commitment but not a new, independently verifiable delivery metric beyond rhetoric and policy language (State Dept, 2026-01-27). Evidence of progress: The 2026 statement aligns with ongoing U.S. government efforts on
Holocaust issues, including the work of the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and related offices referenced in the press release (State Dept, 2026-01-27). Independent, concrete milestones achieving worldwide antisemitism reduction or comprehensive survivor reparations remain scattered and country-specific rather than universal, making a single global progress bar difficult to confirm from public records (JUST Act Report, 2020; State Dept, 2026-01-27).
Update · Jan 29, 2026, 09:36 PMin_progress
The claim is that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. This pledge is framed as an enduring commitment rather than a discrete, time-bound action. The January 27, 2026 State Department statement anchors the claim in official diplomacy discourse (State Department, 2026-01-27).
Update · Jan 29, 2026, 07:35 PMin_progress
What the claim states:
The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. This was articulated in a State Department release tied to
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026). The claim frames a broad, ongoing policy stance rather than a discrete, time-bound program.
Evidence of progress: The public document reiterates longstanding
U.S. commitments and outlines a normative stance rather than reporting on quantified actions or milestones. There is no in-channel evidence of new, verifiable policy measures, funding allocations, or performance metrics tied to reducing antisemitic incidents abroad within the document itself.
Assessment of completion status: At present, there is no public confirmation of completed measures meeting the stated completion condition (measurable reduction in antisemitic incidents internationally, reparative remedies for Holocaust survivors/heirs, and documented preservation/education efforts). The statement reflects intent and continuity of policy rather than a closed, finished program.
Dates and milestones: The source is dated January 27, 2026, aligning with International Holocaust Remembrance Day commitments. No subsequent milestones or completion dates are provided in the release. Independent verification of implemented actions or impact would require additional reporting from the State Department or other federal agencies.
Reliability and context: The primary source is the U.S. State Department, a government outlet, which provides authoritative articulation of policy stance but does not itself verify impact. Complementary coverage from reputable outlets or official progress reports would be needed to assess measurable outcomes and ensure neutrality given broader geopolitical incentives.
Update · Jan 29, 2026, 05:03 PMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress exists in policy development and international engagement. In 2024 the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism were launched and endorsed by many countries and organizations, reflecting a coordinated, internationally oriented framework promoted by the United States (State Dept, 2024). The United States also maintains ongoing priorities around
Holocaust remembrance, education, and combating distortions of the memory through related ambassadorial and public messaging (State Dept, International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026; White House policy documents).
Evidence that the promise is in progress rather than complete is clear: formal, measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents worldwide remain a complex, multifactorial goal spanning many jurisdictions and sectors; no single treaty or universal metric exists to declare completion. The Just Act framework and related State Department reporting demonstrate ongoing efforts to secure restitution or compensation for Holocaust survivors and heirs where possible (JUST Act reports; State Dept references). Legal and educational initiatives cited by
U.S. offices are incremental and location-specific, not universal, and rely on continual policy implementation.
Concrete milestones noted include international guideline endorsements (Buenos Aires, July 2024) and annual observances framing the U.S. stance on antisemitism and Holocaust memory (International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements, 2025–2026). U.S. policy communications emphasize a whole-of-government approach—awareness, accountability, and education—without a stated, fixed completion date, reflecting the ongoing nature of the mandate. Reliability of sources is high, anchored in official State Department and White House communications.
Notes on reliability and incentives: the primary sources are U.S. government statements and plurilateral guidelines, which align with official policy objectives and have transparent reporting channels; these sources acknowledge ongoing work with incremental progress and legal/educational initiatives subject to political and legal contexts. Given the absence of a defined completion date and the breadth of the mandate, the claim is best categorized as in_progress rather than complete or failed.
Update · Jan 29, 2026, 03:13 PMin_progress
Restating the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The State Department reaffirmed this commitment in a January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement, explicitly linking
anti-Semitism countermeasures with Holocaust memory and survivor justice (State Dept press statement, Jan 27, 2026).
Evidence of progress exists in established
U.S. government structures and long-running programs: the Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues continues to coordinate policy on Holocaust restitution, remembrance, and anti-Semitism countermeasures (State Dept “About
Us” and related materials). The JUST Act program, which requires reporting on countries’ restitution efforts under Terezin, remains a framework for accountability and benchmarking (JUST Act materials, State Dept).
In addition, congressional action in 2025–2026 signals expanded backing for anti-Semitism programming and vetting reforms in U.S. foreign assistance (coverage from reputable outlets). Milestones cited include annual or periodic reporting under the JUST Act and proposed funding increases for the antisemitism envoy’s office (e.g., $2.5 million for 2026 in some accounts), indicating growing capacity rather than a finished program.
Reliability note: The primary source is the U.S. Department of State (official stance and program framework). Supplementary context comes from reporting on funding discussions and the JUST Act, which help track policy progress but do not by themselves prove nationwide antisemitism reductions or complete restitution; thus status remains ongoing and in_progress.
Update · Jan 29, 2026, 01:10 PMin_progress
Restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence of progress: The State Department reaffirmed the commitment on International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026 in an official press release. The
U.S. has also backed the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, indicating participation in an international framework and ongoing diplomacy (State Department). Additional progress is seen in continued Holocaust education and the work of the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues, reflecting sustained engagement rather than a completed program (State Department). Completion status: No formal end date or finished set of actions is announced; the claim describes enduring commitments and ongoing programs rather than a final, completed milestone. Reliability notes: State Department releases are official primary sources for U.S. policy positions, and the 2024 guidelines show a concrete international framework the U.S. supports. Contextual note: International bodies like the UN also emphasize remembrance and education, but the claim concerns U.S. actions specifically, which are ongoing rather than finalized. Overall, the available evidence supports continued progress, not a completed fulfillment.
Update · Jan 29, 2026, 11:13 AMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Analysis of progress shows ongoing policy development and public reaffirmations rather than a finished, measurement-based outcome. The State Department and related
U.S. agencies have formalized structures and frameworks intended to advance these aims, but demonstrable, globally measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents and universally verifiable reparative actions for survivors remain works in progress (State Department, International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026; SEAS and Global Guidelines pages).
Evidence of progress includes the formal establishment and operation of the Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism (SEAS), and the ongoing rollout of the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, which coordinates international norms and endorsements (State Department pages; SEAS overview). These reflect structural and normative advances toward the stated aims, rather than a finished outcome.
A second strand of progress is policy integration within broader U.S. funding and diplomacy efforts, as reflected in 2026 funding discussions and related analyses that describe tying U.S. international funding decisions to anti-antisemitism and pro-democratic actions at multilateral bodies such as the UN. While these indicate movement toward results, they do not by themselves constitute a completed achievement against the completion condition (State Dept materials; reporting on funding packages).
Concretely measurable outcomes—such as a verifiable, worldwide reduction in antisemitic incidents or universally recognized reparative measures for Holocaust survivors and heirs—are not yet documented in this period. Public statements and policy instruments point to ongoing programs, capacity-building, and normative alignment, with no single milestone signaling full completion (State Dept releases; independent coverage citing policy developments).
Reliability notes: the primary source is the U.S. State Department, a direct defender of U.S. policy, which provides authoritative framing of commitments and programs. Complementary reporting from reputable outlets and U.S. institutions confirms the existence of SEAS and the Global Guidelines, though independent metrics on impact remain scarce or variable across regions (State Dept pages; USHMM overview; reputable media coverage).
Overall assessment: given the lack of a defined completion date and the absence of globally verified impact metrics, the claim is best described as in_progress. The U.S. has undertaken structural and policy steps intended to fulfill the promise, but measurable, fully completed outcomes across all regions have not yet been demonstrated.

Claim restatement:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department reaffirmed this commitment on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026), stating the
U.S. will counter antisemitism, champion survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory. The Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues (SEHI) continues policy work on returning Holocaust-era assets, securing compensation, and ensuring remembrance and education.
Current status of completion: There is no published completion date or quantitative milestones showing full achievement. Policy and programming are ongoing, with annual remembrance statements and SEHI activities that align with the claim but without end-state verification.
Milestones and reliability: Key milestones include SEHI’s ongoing operations since 1999 and periodic high-level statements reaffirming commitments. These indicate sustained policy implementation but do not provide measurable impact data on antisemitism reductions or reparations outcomes.
Notes on sources and incentives: Official State Department materials are the primary source confirming the claim, reflecting government policy. SEHI materials outline aims around restitution and memory, but independent metrics of impact are limited, consistent with typical diplomatic reporting.
Overall assessment: The status is best characterized as in_progress, with continuing policy initiatives and commemorations that meet elements of the stated goal but lacking verifiable completion.

Progress evidence: The U.S. State Department reaffirmed this commitment in its
International Holocaust Remembrance Day 2026 statement, explicitly saying the United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory (State Dept, 2026-01-27). Separately, the department’s Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism (released 2024 and endorsed by many states by 2025) set a formal framework—denouncing antisemitism, adopting action plans, educating populations, and enhancing data collection and enforcement—further signaling institutional progress toward the claim’s aims (State Dept, Global Guidelines page, 2024–2025). These elements indicate ongoing policy work rather than a final, completed program.
Completion status: There is evidence of sustained policy development and international coordination (IHRA-aligned guidelines, public education, and anti-antisemitism measures). However, there is no publicly documented, final completion with universal, measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents worldwide, nor a clearly defined reparations program for Holocaust survivors and heirs, nor a definitive archival/education initiative achieving “complete” preservation of Holocaust memory. The completion condition remains unmet or unverifiable as of the current date, placing the claim in_progress.
Dates and milestones: Key milestones include the July 2024 launch of the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism and their ongoing endorsements (state.gov page as of 2025), and the January 27, 2026 State Department remarks tying into International Holocaust Remembrance Day. The stance statements emphasize ongoing commitments rather than a fixed deadline or completed slate of actions. Reliability note: State Department statements are primary official sources; the guidelines page is a formal policy framework with public endorsements, though specific national actions and impact metrics are not uniformly published in a single place.
Follow-up note: To assess progress, monitor annual State Department reporting on antisemitism incidents, new or renewed restitution efforts for survivors/ heirs, and updates to Holocaust-education and memory-preservation initiatives (State Dept, 2024–2026). Consider rechecking on or around the next International Holocaust Remembrance Day for published outcome data and new milestones (2027-01-27).

Claim status:
The United States reiterates its pledge to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion Holocaust survivors’ justice, and defend Holocaust memory. Public policy actions underpinning this include the 2023 National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism, the 2024 Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, and the 2025 Executive Order on Additional Measures to Combat Antisemitism, all reflected in official White House/State Department communications. Progress remains ongoing across multiple agencies with measurable policy implementations and endorsements, but no single completion date is given for full realization.

Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The State Department reaffirmed this commitment in a January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement, anchoring the pledge in official policy language and linking it to ongoing anti-discrimination, restitution, and remembrance efforts (State Dept, 2026-01-27).
Evidence of progress: The administration has formalized a multi-year framework to address antisemitism and
Holocaust issues, including the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (May 2023) and ongoing work by the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues, which coordinates restitution, archives access, education, and commemoration efforts (State Dept materials; IHRA-related activity). The JUST Act reporting framework remains in use to assess country progress on restitution and education, highlighting continued government attention to Holocaust-era property, archives access, and remembrance (JUST Act reports through State Dept sources).
What is completed vs. in progress: There is explicit, public policy language committing to counter antisemitism and defend Holocaust memory, but there is no public, verifiable, global quantitative metric showing a universal reduction in antisemitic incidents worldwide attributable to
U.S. policy alone. The work consists of ongoing programs (policy development, diplomacy, education guidelines, provenance research, and survivor support) rather than a single completed initiative with a clear universal completion date (State Dept, 2026-01-27).
Dates and milestones: Key milestones include the 2023 National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism and the ongoing JUST Act reporting cycle, which tracks country progress on restitution, archives, and education. The January 2026 State Department statement marks a reaffirmation rather than a new milestone, signaling continued policy emphasis rather than a discrete closure (State Dept, 2026-01-27).
Source reliability and caveats: Primary evidence comes from official U.S. government sources (State Department statements and JUST Act materials), which are authoritative for U.S. policy but do not independently verify international incident reductions. The claim’s scope—global antisemitism reduction, survivor reparations, and preservation of memory—depends on broader international cooperation and varies by country, so progress is best understood as an ongoing, multi-faceted effort rather than a completed program (State Dept; JUST Act reports).

Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department reaffirmed this commitment in its
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement (Jan 27, 2026), framing countering antisemitism, supporting survivors and heirs, and preserving
Holocaust memory as core
U.S. diplomatic priorities. The department also highlights the work of the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues in pursuing restitution, compensation, education, and commemoration, and notes U.S. leadership on the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism (with 43 international endorsements) and participation in IHRA for Holocaust education and memory preservation.
Completion status: There is clear ongoing activity and policy development, but no publicly announced, universally measurable completion condition. Progress is shown through diplomatic initiatives, legal/restitution efforts, educational tools, and international guidelines, yet observable reductions in antisemitic incidents globally and formalized remedies for all survivors/heirs remain incomplete or ongoing.
Dates and milestones: January 27, 2026 statements anchor the current pledge; references to the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism and IHRA-backed education initiatives indicate continuing, multi-year work. The absence of a defined end date in the statement suggests an ongoing, indefinite program of policy actions rather than a completed project.
Reliability note: The primary sources are official U.S. government communications (State Department releases and speeches), which provide authoritative statements of policy and program scope. Supplementary context from IHRA and State Department materials supports the claimed activities but does not quantify incident-level reductions or survivor/heir restitution totals.

Restatement of claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department’s JUST Act Report (covering 46 countries) documents ongoing efforts to advance restitution and compensation for Holocaust-era property, and to improve education, remembrance, and access to archives. It highlights varied country-wide progress, with some jurisdictions adopting laws or programs while others lag, and it emphasizes the need for expeditious, non-discriminatory processes for restitution and for continued advocacy by the
U.S. and partners. The report and accompanying executive materials reflect sustained U.S. emphasis on justice for survivors and heirs as a policy priority (final country findings released through 2019; published by State in 2020).
Additional evidence of U.S.-led or -endorsed action: The United Nations and other international bodies have intensified emphasis on anti antisemitism and Holocaust education. A UN News piece on
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 2026) foregrounds remembrance, education, and monitoring/prevention of antisemitism, with statements from top UN leadership reinforcing a commitment to defend dignity and memory. These developments align with the broader policy stance described in the State Department materials and reflect ongoing multinational engagement on
Holocaust memory and antisemitism.
Status of completion: There is clear ongoing activity—multilateral education, memorialization, and restitution efforts are in progress across numerous countries—but no single, verifiable global achievement has been completed that demonstrably reduces antisemitic incidents worldwide or fully compensates all survivors and heirs. The JUST Act framework itself is evaluative and continuing, underscoring gaps and best practices rather than a closed, finished program. Given the absence of a concrete, universally met completion condition, the claim remains best characterized as in_progress.
Notes on sources: The primary evidence comes from the State Department’s JUST Act Report and its executive summaries (documentation of 46 country chapters, restitution mechanisms, and education/remembrance efforts) and from UN/UN News coverage of Holocaust remembrance and anti-hate initiatives in 2025–2026. Both sources are official or flagship international outlets, offering structured, policy-relevant overviews rather than opinionated advocacy. These sources collectively support the assessment of ongoing policy activity and multiple, heterogeneous progress milestones while underscoring persistent implementation gaps.
Update · Jan 28, 2026, 07:26 PMin_progress
The claim restates the
U.S. stance that it will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. This framing aligns with official U.S. policy statements issued in recent years, including the Department of State’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day remarks (January 2026) and related policy actions (State Department pages on antisemitism and
Holocaust issues). In addition, the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism and the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism reflect formal, ongoing government efforts to address antisemitism domestically and internationally (White House 2023/2024 materials; State Department pages 2024–2026).
Update · Jan 28, 2026, 04:57 PMin_progress
Claim restatement:
The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: A State Department statement for
International Holocaust Remembrance Day (Jan 27, 2026) reiterates the
U.S. commitment to counter antisemitism, champion survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory, anchored in the department’s Holocaust Issues and Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues. The document cites ongoing commemorations and policy focus, including authoritative references from the executive branch. These signals establish intent and ongoing programming, not a completed program.
Progress status: There is clear rhetorical commitment and institutional structure (e.g., Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues, annual commemorations); however, publicly verifiable, globally measured outcomes demonstrating a sustained, verifiable reduction in antisemitic incidents worldwide or definitive reparative actions for Holocaust survivors and heirs are not presented in the cited materials. Independent measurements of antisemitism trends remain contested and vary by region, with recent reporting indicating persistent or fluctuating incident levels rather than a universal decline.
Dates and milestones: The primary milestone cited is International Holocaust Remembrance Day observance (January 27, 2026) with a reiteration of policy goals. No new, publicly disclosed completion date or measurable, global policy rollout with quantified targets is documented in the provided sources. Reliability notes: The Key source is an official State Department press release, which is publicly verifiable and authoritative for U.S. government intent; supplemental context from UN reporting and academic antisemitism trackers corroborates ongoing global challenges but does not show a completed program. The overall picture suggests continued, prioritized commitment rather than a finished, universally verifiable outcome.
Update · Jan 28, 2026, 02:55 PMin_progress
Restatement of the claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress exists in official
U.S. government actions and reporting. The State Department reiterated the pledge in an International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement on January 27, 2026, underscoring continued U.S. commitment to counter antisemitism, support survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory (State Dept press release, 2026-01-27). In parallel, the JUST Act reporting framework remains in use, with the 2025 Just Act Report detailing actions countries have taken to provide restitution or compensation for Holocaust-era wrongs, and highlighting bilateral progress (State Dept JUST Act report, 2025). The Office of the Special Envoy for
Holocaust Issues continues to develop and implement policies aimed at restitution, compensation, and education about the Holocaust (State Dept profile, 2025).
Evidence about completion or measurable impact is limited and the completion condition remains unmet. There has been ongoing messaging and policy development, but no publicly verifiable, universally applicable metric showing a global, measurably reduced incidence of antisemitism tied to a unified U.S. program, nor a comprehensive, verifiable set of reparations delivered to all Holocaust survivors or heirs. The available materials describe ongoing programs, annual commemorations, and country-by-country restitution efforts rather than a single, global end-state.
Concrete milestones and dates exist, but they reflect ongoing processes rather than final completion. The 2025 JUST Act Report documents actions by various governments toward restitution or compensation for Holocaust-era wrongs, while the 2026 State Department statement ties current policy to memory preservation and education. The presence of the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues signals sustained U.S. policy focus, but the record does not show a fixed end-date or universal implementation across all target countries.
Reliability and limits of sources: The primary sources are U.S. government statements and reports (State Department press releases, JUST Act reports), which provide official stance and policy indicators but do not offer independent verification of global antisemitism trends or universal reparations outcomes. While these sources are authoritative for U.S. policy, independent audits or third-party assessments would strengthen claims about nationwide progress and impact over time.

Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence of progress: The U.S. State Department published an International Holocaust Remembrance Day release on 2026-01-27 that reiterates the pledge to counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Related signaling from the White House and
U.S. diplomatic channels around the same period reinforces ongoing commitment to Holocaust memory and anti-hate work (White House presidential message and State Department notices, 2026-01). Status of concrete outcomes: As of 2026-01-28, public communications demonstrate commitment and ongoing policy framing, but there is no published, verifiable evidence of measurable antisemitism-reduction metrics, survivor reparations, or documented preservation/education milestones completed or legally enacted. The completion condition—tangible, measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally, reparative remedies for survivors/heirs, and proven preservation/education achievements—has not been publicly demonstrated yet; at best, the record shows reaffirmation and plan rather than finalized actions. Reliability note: The sources are official U.S. government communications (State Dept. release and White House statement), which reliably reflect the administration’s stated policy without providing independent verification of outcomes; corroboration from independent, non-governmental organizations would strengthen claims of progress. Conclusion: Given the absence of published, independent progress metrics or completed milestones, the claim remains in_progress at this time (no completion date announced).

Claim restatement:
The United States will always counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. The January 27, 2026 State Department statement explicitly reiterates this enduring commitment in the context of
International Holocaust Remembrance Day. It ties the promise to broader
U.S. aims on antisemitism, survivor restitution, and Holocaust memory integrity.
Evidence of progress: The State Department has publicly framed these goals within ongoing policy frameworks, including cross-cutting initiatives like the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism (endorsed internationally, with U.S. involvement) and the Justice for Uncompensated Survivors Today (JUST) Act reporting, which monitor and promote accountability for restitution and memory preservation. These efforts show institutional, rather than ad hoc, progress towards the stated commitments. The JUST Act reports and related programs indicate sustained attention to restitution and memory, with periodic updates to Congress.
Current status of the promise: There is no formal completion date or milestone indicating the claim is fully achieved. The policies cited are ongoing, with annual or periodic reporting, guidelines, and international cooperation efforts that push toward reduced antisemitic incidents, restitution for survivors and heirs, and preservation/education of Holocaust memory. As of the current date, these efforts remain active and evaluative rather than completed.
Key milestones and dates: Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism were endorsed in 2024, reflecting a concrete international framework that the U.S. supports. The JUST Act Report to Congress, and related Department of State actions on
Holocaust issues, have produced documented progress updates in prior years, but none constitute final completion of the overarching promise. The current administration’s January 2026 statement reinforces continuity rather than a closed ending point.
Source reliability note: The principal source is the U.S. Department of State, an official government communication, supported by ancillary State Department materials (JUST Act reports and guidelines) that themselves reference established, verifiable processes. Given the nature of the claim as a policy commitment rather than a single measure, the most reliable evidence is ongoing official actions, endorsements, and annual reporting rather than a declared finishing date.
Update · Jan 28, 2026, 09:04 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress: The State Department issued an International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement on January 27, 2026, reiterating the
U.S. commitment to these aims and signaling ongoing policy focus through the Office of Holocaust Issues.
Current status of completion: There are no publicly disclosed, final milestones or measurable outcomes showing full completion; the statement represents a policy posture rather than a completed program with quantified results.
Context and corroboration: International coverage and UN reporting on antisemitism and Holocaust remembrance throughout January 2026 align with the U.S. stance, but independent milestones or reductions in antisemitic incidents have not been publicly attributed to U.S. actions as of now.
Reliability note: The primary source is an official State Department release, with supportive international context from UN News, providing a credible basis for interpreting the claim as ongoing policy action rather than finished fulfillment.
Synthesis: Based on current public records, the goal is ongoing and active, but not yet completed given the lack of verifiable, final milestones to demonstrate measurable progress.
Update · Jan 28, 2026, 04:53 AMin_progress
The claim asserts that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Public
US policy documents frame this as an ongoing, multi-faceted effort rather than a one-time action, anchored in Holocaust remembrance, education, and restitution advocacy. There is no fixed completion date; the approach is designed as continuous government leadership and engagement.
Evidence of progress includes the State Department’s Justice for Uncompensated Survivors Today (JUST) Act reports, which monitor countries’ adherence to the Prague/Terezin Declaration commitments and highlight best practices and remaining gaps in restitution and education. The JUST Act framework explicitly calls for ongoing action rather than a finite deadline, signaling continued US engagement on these issues (State Dept JUST Act Report).
The United States has maintained a leadership role through the Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues and related policy initiatives, including efforts to combat antisemitism and to promote Holocaust education, remembrance, and research. Public messaging and policy documents repeatedly emphasize the imperative to address anti-Semitic discrimination and to preserve the memory and lessons of the Holocaust for future generations (State Dept materials; IHRA/ministry-aligned efforts).
Independent assessment notes progress in several
European countries on restitution and provenance research, while recognizing ongoing gaps and bureaucratic/political obstacles. These assessments underscore that while some advancement has occurred, comprehensive, universal resolution—especially for heirless property and movable assets—remains incomplete, aligning with the claim’s characterization of an ongoing, non-final process (JUST Act report summaries; related scholarly and NGO analyses).
Reliability note: the most direct and official confirmations come from the State Department’s JUST Act reports and related Holocaust issues governance documents, which are designed to document progress and gaps for Congress and the public. While these sources show measurable activity and ongoing programs, they do not designate a specific, global completion date or a uniformly verifiable reduction in antisemitic incidents worldwide.
Update · Jan 28, 2026, 03:06 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. This is reflected in ongoing
U.S. policy documents and public statements from the State Department and other federal bodies that frame antisemitism countermeasures, survivor justice, and Holocaust memory as enduring priorities.
Evidence of ongoing policy exists in the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism (2023), which outlines a whole-of-government approach to counter antisemitism domestically and in international contexts, and in related White House/agency initiatives to coordinate response and public messaging (Justice Department/Hate Crimes, State Department, etc.).
International guidelines and endorsements have materialized, notably the Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, launched in 2024 with multiple endorsements from countries and international bodies, providing concrete policy guidance that aligns with the stated goal to counter antisemitism worldwide (state.gov).
Public commemorations and diplomacy further reinforce the pledge. The State Department’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day statements reiterate the commitment to counter antisemitism, champion justice for survivors and heirs, and defend Holocaust memory (state.gov, 2026-01-27).
Measurable progress toward the completion condition remains ambiguous. While policy frameworks and memorialized commitments exist, verifiable reductions in antisemitic incidents abroad and documented reparative actions for survivors/heirs require time and systematic data; no single end date or final completion milestone is publicly declared.
Additional context includes reporting and legislative instruments like the JUST Act (Just Act) to promote accountability and reflect on best practices for justice for survivors and heirs; these documents signal ongoing accountability efforts rather than a finished program.
Update · Jan 28, 2026, 01:43 AMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence shows the
U.S. has established formal channels and rhetoric to pursue these aims, including the role of the U.S. Special Envoy for Monitoring and Combating Antisemitism and ongoing diplomatic engagement on antisemitism, Holocaust education, and restitution issues (State Department Lipstadt bio; official statements). Public messaging around
International Holocaust Remembrance Day and related diplomatic and educational efforts further signals ongoing commitment (White House and State Department statements).
Progress toward measurable outcomes exists in policy instruments and reporting, such as the JUST Act reporting framework urging restitution or compensation for survivors and heirs, and preparatory work on documentation and education to preserve Holocaust memory (JUST Act Report to Congress; State Department). However, concrete, uniformly verifiable reductions in antisemitic incidents internationally are not publicly quantified across all regions, and legal remedies for survivors/heirs vary by country and case, indicating uneven progress rather than a universal, trackable completion.
Key milestones include Lipstadt’s ongoing diplomatic travel and engagement with
Europe,
the Middle East, and other partners to counter antisemitism and promote Holocaust remembrance (State Department bio; media coverage). Official communications and education initiatives tied to museums, archives, and curricula reinforce memory integrity and Holocaust education through U.S. institutions and international partnerships (White House statements; official state.gov materials). The completion condition—demonstrably reducing antisemitic incidents worldwide and delivering reparative remedies—has not been uniformly achieved or verified globally.
Reliability considerations: U.S. government sources provide authoritative policy statements and personnel assignments, but independent international metrics on antisemitism and restitution outcomes remain variable in coverage. Independent observers and academia corroborate ongoing antisemitism concerns and restitution challenges, with results differing by region and legal context, informing a cautious interpretation of progress (UN News; legal analyses; academic reporting).
Update · Jan 28, 2026, 12:57 AMin_progress
Restated claim:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Evidence of progress exists in formal
U.S. policy instruments and public diplomacy. The State Department’s Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism, launched in 2024 and endorsed by dozens of countries and organizations by 2025, provides a structured international framework that U.S. officials promote and pursue. This framework is supported by ongoing U.S. engagement through the Office of the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism and related public statements, including annual commemorations and policy notes.
On justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, U.S. policy is advanced through mechanisms like the JUST Act reports and related diplomacy aimed at encouraging restitution and justice for victims under international agreements and national laws. Publicly available summaries show continued U.S. emphasis on seeking accountability and redress in cooperation with international partners and survivor groups, though concrete multilateral reparations are country-specific and vary by case.
Regarding preserving and defending Holocaust memory, the United States has publicly reaffirmed its commitment through remembrance observances, legal/policy frameworks, and the promotion of Holocaust education as a core element of public policy. The Global Guidelines explicitly include education about
Holocaust remembrance and combating denial as central components, indicating alignment with the stated aim to safeguard memory integrity on an international scale.
Source reliability and limitations: The assessment relies on U.S. government sources (State Department pages and official guidelines), which provide direct statements of policy and endorsed practices. While these instruments show measurable policy actions and international cooperation, independent metrics on worldwide antisemitic incidents and survivor restitution progress are uneven and complex to attribute to a single policy initiative. Overall, the claim appears to be actively pursued, with identifiable policy milestones, though measurable global impact evidence remains partial and ongoing.
Update · Jan 27, 2026, 09:43 PMin_progress
The claim states that
the United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory. Evidence indicates the
U.S. has taken formal steps across these areas, but no single, all-encompassing program has completed all elements to date. Actions are distributed across diplomacy, policy guidelines, and survivor-restitution efforts with ongoing work and measurable milestones still in progress.
On countering antisemitism worldwide, the State Department and related offices have developed and promoted global guidelines and coordinated actions intended to reduce antisemitic incidents and bolster protections. The Global Guidelines for Countering Antisemitism were published in 2024, and the department has continued public-facing diplomacy, reporting, and engagement with international partners to advance best practices (State Department, 2024). These steps reflect sustained policy momentum, though they are not a single definitive metric of global reduction in antisemitism incidents.
Regarding justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, the United States has emphasized accountability and restitution through legislative and diplomatic channels. The Justice for Uncompensated Survivors Today (JUST) Act and related reporting frames highlight efforts to pursue restitution or compensation and showcase how the U.S. seeks remedies under international and domestic frameworks (State Department JUST Act reports; WJRO briefing, 2024–2025). Court proceedings and national reparations programs have yielded some payments and ongoing claims, but a comprehensive, universal solution remains unsettled and uneven across countries (examples include ongoing
Hungary-
France-related cases and survivor claims; 2024–2025 coverage).
On defending the integrity of Holocaust memory, the U.S. continues to support education, commemoration, and accurate memory discourse through diplomacy and public initiatives. Efforts include support for Holocaust education and remembrance work, and public statements reinforcing
Never Again, with voices from the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism and allied offices underscoring memory preservation as a core policy aim (State Department statements and program disclosures, 2023–2025). These activities contribute to memory integrity but are part of broader, long-term educational commitments rather than a singular completed action.
Reliability note: the sources drawn are U.S. government releases and official documents (State Department reports and guidelines) and reputable allied analyses; these provide official framing and milestones but often describe ongoing programs with varying degrees of measurable impact. Given the dispersed and incremental nature of the initiatives, the overall objective remains in_progress rather than complete or failed.
Update · Jan 27, 2026, 07:47 PMin_progress
What the claim states:
The United States will counter antisemitism worldwide, champion justice for Holocaust survivors and heirs, and defend the integrity of Holocaust memory.
Progress evidence: The State Department publicly reaffirmed this commitment in a January 27, 2026
International Holocaust Remembrance Day statement, including language that the
U.S. will always counter antisemitism worldwide and defend Holocaust memory. The JUST Act framework continues to guide follow-up work, with annual and multi-year reporting on Holocaust-era restitution efforts and related policy progress (e.g., the JUST Act Report on 46 countries endorsed the Prague/Terezin declarations and their implementation). Public materials show ongoing diplomatic and bureaucratic mechanisms (Office of the Special Envoy for Holocaust Issues, Embassy outreach, and international coordination) aimed at promoting restitution, archival access, education, and commemoration.
Completion status: No public, comprehensive completion has been announced. The promised outcomes—measurable reductions in antisemitic incidents globally, restitution or reparative measures for survivors and heirs, and robust preservation/education efforts—are described as ongoing policy aims with progress uneven across countries. The presence of formal reporting and ongoing programs indicates continued activity, but a definitive, universal completion date or universally verifiable impact data has not been published.
Milestones and reliability notes: Key sources include the State Department’s January 2026 press statement, and the ongoing JUST Act reporting framework (which tracks country-by-country implementation of Holocaust-era restitution commitments). These sources reflect official U.S. policy stance and monitoring efforts, though they note variability in national adoption and effectiveness. Taken together, the evidence supports sustained, policy-driven activity rather than a finished, globally realized outcome.
