JNS.org – US President Donald Trump announced his intention on Thursday to appoint five individuals to the US Holocaust Memorial Council.

Those named to the council, which is the governing body of the US Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC, include David Marchick, who served as the Deputy US Assistant Secretary of State in the Clinton administration; Republican strategist Jeffrey Miller, founder and CEO of Miller Strategies; US International Development Finance Corporation CEO Adam S. Boehler; Miami Beach investor Jimmy Resnick; and former US Housing and Urban Development General Deputy Assistant Secretary Daniel Resnick.
