Action Alert: Jews are Under Attack
.png)
Jews are under attack…on college campuses, at shuls, schools, and online.
The bipartisan Jewish American Security Act is a comprehensive bill to strengthen federal efforts to fight antisemitism.
The bill would require the Department of Education to develop and implement a framework to combat antisemitism on college campuses, make a historic $1 billion investment in security resources for at-risk non-profits, and hold large social media platforms accountable by requiring transparency regarding their handling of antisemitic content.
Please tell your members of Congress to add their names to this bill.
