FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: September 30, 2024

ICAN Endorses George Nickle for West Hollywood City Council

The Israeli-American Civic Action Network (ICAN) is proud to endorse George Nickle for West Hollywood City Council, recognizing his forward-thinking vision and commitment to building a more prosperous and safer future for the city. With years of community advocacy and leadership, Nickle’s experience in public safety and civic engagement make him uniquely qualified to navigate the challenges ahead while creating new opportunities for growth and security in West Hollywood.

Nickle’s commitment to creating safer communities aligns with ICAN’s core values. His leadership on the Public Safety Commission, the formation of his own Neighborhood Watch Group, and his pledge to allocate more resources to the LASD reflect his dedication to addressing the evolving security needs of the community. As someone who understands the concerns of both the Jewish and LGBTQ+ communities, Nickle has consistently supported policies that protect vulnerable groups, ensuring that West Hollywood remains a safe and welcoming environment for all.

Nickle shares ICAN’s priorities in fighting antisemitism and extremist ideologies, including antisemitic and anti-Israel rhetoric. His commitment to promoting facts over political propaganda and combating divisive narratives is essential in maintaining a fair, honest, and constructive public discourse. In addition, his support for expanding Holocaust education, along with his firm stance against discriminatory curricula, demonstrates his understanding of the need to educate others about Jewish and Israeli-American heritage and history.

Failed and divisive leadership has West Hollywood careening in the wrong direction. With a focus on public safety, community engagement, and inclusivity, George Nickle is the right choice to lead West Hollywood into a more united, prosperous, and secure future.

The election will take place on November 5, 2024, and ICAN encourages West Hollywood residents to vote for George Nickle.
