Watch live: House Education subcommittee holds hearing on combatting antisemitism in K-12 schools

The House Education subcommittee on Wednesday morning is slated to hold a hearing on combatting antisemitism in K-12 schools.

The House earlier this month approved a bill that seeks to crack down on antisemitism on college campuses, a measure that hit the floor as pro-Palestinian protests roil universities across the country.

The chamber approved the bipartisan legislation — titled the Antisemitism Awareness Act and introduced by Rep. Mike Lawler (R-N.Y.) — in a 320-91 vote, sending it to the Senate for consideration. Twenty-one Republicans and 70 Democrats opposed the measure.

The bill would require the Department of Education to use the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism when enforcing antidiscrimination laws.

The event is scheduled to begin at 10:15 a.m. EDT.

  1. The biggest reason for so much anti-Semitism is United States policy towards Israel
    Also, do you do not use term Semitism that also applied to Afrikaans and Arabs
    It’s basically a racist the way you use it
