Quote The vile, hate-filled poison of anti-Semitism must be condemned and confronted everywhere and anywhere it appears.

COMBATING ANTI-SEMITISM: President Donald J. Trump is issuing an Executive Order to further the fight against the rise of anti-Semitism in the United States.

President Trump’s order makes it clear that Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 applies to anti-Semitic discrimination based on race, color, or national origin.

When enforcing Title VI against covered anti-Semitic discrimination, agencies will consider the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s (IHRA) definition of anti-Semitism as well as the IHRA’s contemporary examples.

The President is also directing Federal agencies to identify other ways the Government can use nondiscrimination authorities to address anti-Semitism.

This action further demonstrates the unwavering commitment of President Trump and his Administration to combating all forms of anti-Semitism.

CONFRONTING RISING HATE: In recent years, Americans have witnessed a disturbing rise of anti-Semitic incidents and rhetoric across the country.

In the past few years, there has been a disturbing trend of rising anti-Semitism in the United States.

Anti-Semitic incidents have increased in America since 2013, particularly in schools and on college campuses.

These incidents include horrific acts of violence against Jewish Americans and synagogues in the United States.

Earlier this year, 18 Democrat Members of Congress cosponsored legislation in support of the anti-Semitic “Boycott, Divest, Sanctions” (BDS) movement. In their resolution, these Congressmen and Congresswomen shockingly compared support for Israel to support for Nazi Germany.



TAKING ACTION: President Trump and his Administration have repeatedly taken action to combat hate and support the Jewish community.
