At the outset of his first address before Congress, President Trump condemned bomb threats aimed at dozens of Jewish community centers and vandalism at Jewish cemeteries in recent weeks.

"Recent threats targeting Jewish Community Centers and vandalism of Jewish cemeteries, as well as last week's shooting in Kansas City, remind us that while we may be a nation divided on policies, we are a country that stands united in condemning hate and evil in all its forms," he said.

Trump had faced criticism for not denouncing a surge in hate crimes since his election.
