The Jewish-American community in Baltimore has been active in supporting the resettlement of Syrian refugees. The Union for Reform Judaism, the American Jewish Council, Jewish Community Relations Council, and groups representing the Conservative and Orthodox movements have vocalized support for Syrian refugees. Rabbi Daniel Cotzin Burg of Beth Am, a Conservative synagogue in Baltimore, has expressed support for Syrian refugees in Baltimore. Beth Am congregants have voiced concerned about stereotypes of Syrian Muslims and Islamophobia following the January 2015 Île-de-France attacks. Beth Am congregants have cooperated with the International Rescue Committee to assist Syrian refugees. However, some Jewish-Americans have opposed resettlement of Syrian refugees due to concerns about Muslim antisemitism. Morton Klein, President of the Zionist Organization of America, published an opinion piece in the Baltimore Jewish Times denouncing HIAS, the Anti-Defamation League, and other Jewish-American organizations for what he called "supporting dangerous Syrian immigration", writing that "The violence perpetrated by Muslim immigrants in Europe — especially toward European Jews — portends what America has in store if we bring more such immigrants here." HIAS had collected the signatures of 80 rabbis from the Baltimore-Washington area that was sent to Congress urging members of Congress to learn from Jewish history and welcome all refugees.
