Congressman D’Esposito Introduces Define to Defeat Act

Federal Bill – “Define to Defeat Act” – We worked directly with U.S. Congressman Anthony D’Esposito (R-NY) in drafting this bill to combat antisemitism. Here is the Congressman’s press release. We also did a ‘collab’ on Instagram.

“If passed, this act would apply the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) Working Definition of Antisemitism to the enforcement of civil rights laws. In doing so, the legislation would provide federal officials with an objective, contemporary definition of antisemitism, better helping them to assess and prosecute criminal and discriminatory incidents motivated by antisemitism.”
