Schools receiving federal money would have to fight antisemitism as strongly as other discrimination.
This bill would make schools and colleges that get federal money treat discrimination against Jewish people with the same seriousness as other forms of discrimination. It would also require them to use a specific definition of antisemitism when investigating complaints, aiming to give Jewish students and employees stronger protection against harassment.
Currently, many schools and colleges have not consistently addressed antisemitism with the same seriousness as other forms of discrimination. If this bill becomes law, schools and colleges that receive federal funding would be required to treat antisemitism discrimination as vigorously as other discrimination banned by the Civil Rights Act, using a specific definition of antisemitism in their investigations.
