On November 6, 2026, Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) criticized a planned pro-Palestinian bike ride in Philadelphia that aimed to boycott six Jewish-owned businesses labeled as "Zionist establishments." The event was scheduled for Sunday and drew criticism from local leaders and the broader community, including Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker and Pennsylvania Attorney General Dave Sunday. On November 8, the day of the event, approximately 300 pro-Palestinian protesters clashed with about 200 pro-Israeli counter-protesters, leading to three arrests for assault and disorderly conduct. The boycott coincided with the eve of the Kristallnacht anniversary, a Nazi pogrom against Jews in Germany and Austria in 1938, adding historical context to the tensions.
