🗳 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 House passes antisemitism bill with broad bipartisan support amid campus arrests

🔶️ The Antisemitism Awareness Act would require the Education Department to adopt the definition of antisemitism used by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance.

🔶️ The measure passed in a 320-91 vote. Twenty-one Republicans and 70 Democrats voted against the legislation.

🔶️ The bill comes as Republicans seek to launch investigations into antisemitism on college campuses in response to the pro-Palestinian protests. The current version of the legislation was introduced in late October after Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel but brought to the floor this week.

🗳 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 Matt Walsh on House Antisemitism Bill H.R. 6090:

The vast majority of Republicans just voted for a bill to criminalize criticisms of the Israeli government. If the bill passes you will be guilty of hate speech if you “apply double standards” to the government of Israel or accuse it of genocide. This is honestly one of the most insane pieces of legislation I’ve ever seen.

🗳 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 Charlie Kirk on X:

In response to campus anti-Israel protests, the House is rushing to to vote on a new bill, HR 6090. This new bill would officially define "Antisemitism" so the federal government can sue, prosecute, or sanction more people, businesses, and universities for supposed violations of civil rights law.

I abhor antisemitism, but this bill is flagrantly unconstitutional and an appalling attack on the First Amendment.

This bill would make it illegal to compare Israeli policies to Nazi policies. It would make it illegal to describe Israel as racist. It would make it illegal to accuse an American citizen of being more loyal to Israel than to the United States.

All of those behaviors might be stupid or repugnant, but they are indisputably protected by the First Amendment. Yet now, Congressional Republicans are rushing to gut the First Amendment in order to pass a Europe-style ban on supposed "hate speech."

Rioters should be arrested. Unhinged Israel-hating students who take over buildings and refuse to leave should be expelled.

But I stand with Rep Thomas Massie: This bill is an affront to the Constitution and must not pass.

🗳 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 Candace Owens on X:

Israel has completely over-played its hand now.
True American conservatives will never support laws that threaten speech. This bill is the work of deranged Bolshevik psychopaths.

There’s no other way to state it.

If you support this "antisemitism" hate speech bill

Not only are you spitting on the first amendment

You are openly denying the Bible as well

🗳 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 Congresswoman Lauren Boebert on House Antisemitism Bill H.R. 6090:

The rise of antisemitism in America and especially on college campuses is abhorrent and disgusting, but I will not violate my constitutional principles to vote for a bill that tramples on the First Amendment and won’t make a positive impact on this issue.

I’m proud that my bill, the Antisemitism Awareness Act, just passed the House of Representatives 320 to 91. This bill has broad, bipartisan support and will begin the process of cracking down on the antisemitism we’ve seen run rampant on college campuses across America.
