“This historic bill is the most far-reaching antisemitism initiative ever to be introduced in Congress. We applaud the Countering Antisemitism Act and its efforts to implement the National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism and make it permanent.” —Jonathan Greenblatt, ADL National Director and CEO
This week, we are thrilled to welcome the introduction of the Countering Antisemitism Act. ADL led the efforts on the creation of this important bill along with the Co-Chairs of the House and Senate Bipartisan Task Force for Combating Antisemitism. Its introduction is thanks to the ADL communities’ advocacy efforts and we ask for your help in calling on Congress to pass it.
The U.S. Jewish community is facing the worst crisis of antisemitism that we have seen in a generation. The Countering Antisemitism Act offers a smart, innovative whole-of-government and whole-of-society approach to combating this hatred and protecting Jews around the country. It will create lasting structures to prioritize the fight against antisemitism, including a domestic National Coordinator to Counter Antisemitism and a dedicated Task Force that meets regularly to coordinate efforts to fight antisemitism across agencies. The act will also promote Holocaust education, address the scourge of antisemitism on college and university campuses across the country, support the life-saving Nonprofit Security Grant Program and more.
