Former Bal Harbour mayor Gabe Groisman will publish "The Jewish Fight for America" in December 2026 with Gefen Publishing House, expanding a manuscript he previewed in 2025 as "Before It's Too Late," and is booking launch events nationwide through spring 2027.
Gabe Groisman, the former mayor of Bal Harbour, Florida, will publish "The Jewish Fight for America" in December 2026 through Gefen Publishing House, the Jerusalem-based publisher founded in 1981. Groisman says the book answers the three questions he hears most: what is happening to Jews in America, how bad it has gotten and what can actually be done about it.
What is Gabe Groisman's new book about?
"The Jewish Fight for America" grew directly out of the three questions Groisman says he is asked constantly on his podcast, in his column and on the road: what is actually happening to Jews in America, how serious the problem has become and what can be done about it. Groisman has not released a chapter-by-chapter synopsis, but he has framed the book as moving past diagnosis into a plan of action, a structure consistent with his public commentary since October 7, 2023.
The project is not Groisman's first attempt at the subject. In September 2025, he previewed a manuscript on the same theme under a different working title, "Before It's Too Late," describing it on the premiere episode of his podcast "Standpoint with Gabe Groisman" as an examination of antisemitism across politics, academia and within the Jewish community itself, paired with concrete steps to confront it. "The Jewish Fight for America" appears to be the same project carried to publication under its final title and a locked release date.
Who is publishing "The Jewish Fight for America"?
Gefen Publishing House is an English-language publisher headquartered in Jerusalem, founded in 1981 by Murray and Hana Greenfield and now run by their son, CEO Ilan Greenfield. The house publishes roughly 40 titles a year and specializes in English-language nonfiction on Jewish and Israeli subjects, distributing in both Israel and the United States. Its recent list includes titles on October 7, Israeli military history and the Holocaust, placing Groisman's book inside a catalog built for exactly this audience.
Who is Gabe Groisman?
Gabe Groisman served as mayor of Bal Harbour, Florida, from 2016 to 2022, after first winning a village council seat in 2014. In December 2015, he authored and passed the nation's first municipal ordinance banning boycotts, divestment and sanctions against Israel. In December 2017, he became the first elected official in the United States to codify the IHRA definition of antisemitism into local law, a template other municipalities have since cited when drafting similar measures.
Groisman is the founder of Groisman, LLC, a government affairs and consulting firm with offices in Miami and Washington, D.C., and the principal of Groisman Law, where he has represented clients in matters spanning commercial litigation, defamation and compliance work. He hosts the weekly podcast "Standpoint with Gabe Groisman," featuring interviews with figures including U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee, former Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Secretary of State Marco Rubio, according to The Jerusalem Post. He also writes a weekly column for JNS.org, serves as a Senior Advisor to the Combat Antisemitism Movement, chairs the board of the Children's Tumor Foundation and sits on the national board of the Republican Jewish Coalition.
Groisman's advocacy work extends beyond writing and broadcasting. He has led a solidarity mission of 15 chiefs of staff to sitting U.S. governors to Israel, telling Israel National News that the trip was meant to counter what he calls a misinformation campaign against Israel that he sees as a root driver of antisemitism in the United States. He has also filed a Title VI complaint against a law school over alleged discriminatory conduct, part of a legal practice that regularly intersects with his advocacy.
What has Groisman said about the book's launch plans?
Groisman is booking launch events across the country from December 2026 through spring 2027. In his announcement, he told supporters that if they can fill a room, he will show up to speak, and asked interested organizers to reach him directly by direct message. Pre-orders for "The Jewish Fight for America" have not yet opened on Gefen's site.
Why does this book matter for the Jewish and Florida-Israel business community?
Groisman's move from South Florida municipal politics into national commentary on antisemitism tracks a broader pattern of Orthodox Jewish officials taking on visible roles in Miami-Dade County government, including in Bal Harbour's current leadership. His anti-BDS ordinance and his antisemitism codification, both passed while he served in Bal Harbour, are frequently cited as models by other municipalities considering similar legislation, giving his book's arguments a policy track record to point to rather than untested theory.
The book also lands amid an active legislative push on the same problem: in June 2026, Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY), chair of the House antisemitism task force, introduced the bipartisan Jewish American Security Act, aimed at campus antisemitism, attacks on Jewish institutions and online hate. Groisman's book arrives as a companion argument from outside Congress for the same fight Washington is now trying to legislate.
