On October 7, the Jewish Federations of North Carolina held a special ceremony to mark the one-year anniversary of the Hamas terrorist attacks on Israel. During this event, Harry Kaplan was among the distinguished honorees, recognized for his significant contributions to the Jewish community and his tireless advocacy efforts.
Harry Kaplan, along with two prominent political leaders, NC State Senate President Pro Tempore Phil Berger and NC Senator Bobby Hanig, received special recognition for their outstanding work in supporting legislation that protects Jewish communities in North Carolina. Kaplan was specifically honored for his instrumental role in lobbying for the SHALOM Act, a pivotal piece of legislation that defines anti-Semitism within the North Carolina General Statutes.
