US House Passes Antisemitism Bill As Pro-Palestinian Protests Grip Colleges | Firstpost America The United States House of Representatives has passed a bill that would expand the federal definition of antisemitism. It is largely seen as a reaction to the ongoing Pro-Palestinian protests unfolding on university campuses across the country. The bill would now go to the Senate for consideration. If it were to become law, it would allow the Department of Education to restrict funding to universities perceived as tolerating antisemitism. However, critics say the law could be used to stifle campus protests against Israel’s war in Gaza. Rights groups also say that the bill would conflate the criticism of the state of Israel with antisemitism. --- US | Antisemitism | Palestine | Protests | Education | Israel | Campus | Law | Gaza | War | University | Senate | Bill | Firstpost America | Eric Ham | War | Geopolitics | Global Economy | Firstpost | World News | Latest News | Global News | Interna
