The White House held a conference call on Tuesday with 15 of the leading Rabbis from the New York Orthodox Jewish community. The meeting was held in order to urge the rabbis to follow the administration's guidelines to limit the number of attendees at social gatherings to ten people.
Avi Berkowitz, an assistant to US President Donald Trump, spoke with the Rabbis for 45 minutes, in which they went through the Trump administration's new guidelines, a source with knowledge of the details of the conversation told The Jerusalem Post.
