The U.S. House of Representatives has passed the Antisemitism Awareness Act with an overwhelming 320 to 91 vote, signaling a firm stance against discrimination targeting Jewish communities. The bill's passage comes amidst growing concerns over antisemitic incidents on college campuses nationwide.
The Antisemitism Awareness Act aims to define the meaning of antisemitism, potentially making it easier for concerned Jewish students to file civil rights complaints. It also grants the Department of Education more authority to enforce anti-discrimination laws, particularly in educational settings.
