Today , Jill and I are saddened to hear about the tragic loss of American Itay Chen , who was killed by Hamas in a terrorist attack on October 7 . Back in December , Itay ' s father and brother came to the White House to talk about the pain and uncertainty they ' ve been going through while waiting for Itay ' s safe return . It was a tough meeting , but they gave me a menorah as a symbol that light will always triumph over darkness . As we mourn alongside Itay ' s family , we hold onto that message and promise to keep working to bring home all those still held captive .
