A BILL

To direct the Attorney General to establish within the Department of 
Justice the Office of the National Coordinator to Counter Antisemitism, 
and for other purposes.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the 
United States of America in Congress assembled,

SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ``Antisemitism Response and Prevention 
Act of 2025''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

Congress finds the following:
(1) Antisemitic incidents in the United States have reached 
historic levels, with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) 
documenting 1,938 antisemitic incidents in 2024, representing a 
73 percent increase from 2022 and the highest number recorded 
since the FBI began tracking hate crimes in 1991, with Jews--
comprising only 2 percent of the United States population--
accounting for 69 percent of all religion-based hate crimes.
(2) Following the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks on Israel, 
multiple tracking organizations documented a 360 to 388 percent 
increase in antisemitic incidents during the 3-month period 
from October 7, 2023, to January 7, 2024, with FBI Director 
Christopher Wray testifying that antisemitism has reached 
``historic levels'' in the United States.
(3) Academic research has documented severe deterioration 
of campus climates for Jewish students, with Brandeis 
University finding hostility rates approximately twice as high 
as 2016 baseline measurements.
(4) The May 2023 United States National Strategy to Counter 
Antisemitism represented a landmark, gold-standard, and 
comprehensive approach to addressing antisemitism, developed 
with extensive input from Jewish institutions and individuals 
across the political spectrum, emphasizing that combating 
antisemitism requires protecting democratic institutions, civil 
liberties, and coalition-building across diverse communities, 
and establishing coordination mechanisms across over 30 Federal 
agencies.
(5) Despite the real and documented crisis of antisemitism, 
there has been a systematic pattern of weaponizing antisemitism 
accusations by the Trump Administration to pursue ideological 
and partisan political objectives unrelated to protecting 
Jewish communities from discrimination and hatred, including 
attacks on educational institutions for political 
disagreements, suppression of constitutionally protected 
speech, and enforcement of ideological conformity.
(6) The Department of Education has launched investigations 
into approximately 60 institutions of higher education, not 
primarily to protect Jewish students from discrimination, but 
to use the false premise of antisemitism accusations as pretext 
for forcing the elimination of academic programs related to 
diversity and Middle Eastern studies, threatening to withdraw 
Federal funding to compel ideological conformity, and 
undermining the autonomy and academic freedom of such 
institutions, with common patterns including lack of due 
process, conflation of criticism of Israeli government policies 
with antisemitism, and targeting of protected speech and 
academic inquiry.
(7) The Trump administration has inappropriately 
appropriated the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance 
(IHRA) definition of antisemitism as a tool for immigration 
enforcement and deportation proceedings, applying a non-legally 
binding educational tool in punitive legal contexts for which 
it was never intended, with the Department of Homeland Security 
announcing in April 2025 that it would screen social media 
activity for antisemitism using the IHRA definition to guide 
determinations.
(8) Multiple documented cases demonstrate the systematic 
targeting of students and legal residents for deportation based 
solely on their pro-Palestinian activism, including peaceful 
protests, academic inquiry, and political organizing, with 
every case that has reached Federal court resulting in release 
orders and findings of likely constitutional violations, 
including Federal judges ruling that the Trump administration 
is in continued violation of the First Amendment to the 
Constitution by detaining individuals for protected speech.
(9) The Trump administration has sought to tie nonprofit 
security grants, which fund critical houses of worship and 
religious community center security measures (including 
synagogues and Jewish Community Centers), to compliance with 
administration positions on immigration enforcement and 
diversity policies, with the Department of Homeland Security 
imposing conditions in April 2025 mandating that recipients 
cooperate with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement 
officials and prohibiting any programs that ``advance or 
promote DEI'', effectively holding Jewish community safety 
hostage to unrelated political objectives.
(10) Federal judges have blocked enforcement of these 
conditions through permanent injunctions in multiple 
jurisdictions, ruling that conditions were ``arbitrary and 
capricious'' and ``unconstitutional'', with nearly 70 religious 
organizations and over 120 faith leaders signing a letter 
rejecting these conditions and stating they are ``unified in 
refusing to capitulate to conditions that would require us to 
sacrifice the safety and dignity of our community members''.
(11) The Heritage Foundation's ``Project Esther: A National 
Strategy to Combat Antisemitism'', released on October 7, 2024, 
has served as a blueprint for the administration's antisemitism 
policies, but rather than genuinely combating antisemitism, it 
weaponizes accusations of antisemitism to pursue partisan 
political objectives, including dismantling diversity programs, 
suppressing pro-Palestinian advocacy, defunding educational 
institutions, attacking nonprofit organizations, and 
undermining academic freedom.
(12) The New York Times investigation published in May 2025 
found that ``the second Trump administration had called for or 
acted upon more than half of Project Esther's proposals'', with 
Heritage Foundation officials stating there are ``clear 
parallels'' between their recommendations and administration 
actions.
(13) Project Esther's development was led by predominantly 
Christian nationalist individuals with minimal Jewish 
organizational support, is tied to Christian Zionism theology 
and beliefs that Jewish presence in the Holy Land will 
precipitate End Times, and focuses exclusively on left-wing 
critics of Israel while ignoring antisemitism from white 
supremacists and other far-right groups, making no mention of 
Proud Boys, white supremacist militias, neo-Nazi groups, the 
Charlottesville violence, the Pittsburgh synagogue shooting, or 
other far-right antisemitic violence.
(14) Effective antisemitism prevention and response 
requires comprehensive, evidence-based approaches that 
strengthen rather than undermine democratic institutions, with 
research and experience demonstrating that approaches are most 
effective when they address antisemitism as connected to other 
forms of hatred and extremism, strengthen democratic 
institutions and civil liberties, build broad coalitions across 
diverse communities, focus enforcement on clear cases of 
discrimination while protecting political expression, and 
invest in education and prevention rather than relying solely 
on punitive measures.
(15) History demonstrates that Jewish communities are 
safest in robust democracies with strong civil liberties, equal 
protection under the law, and inclusive pluralistic cultures, 
and most vulnerable when these democratic foundations are 
eroded, and that weaponizing antisemitism for partisan 
political purposes not only fails to protect Jewish communities 
but actively breeds more antisemitism by associating Jewish 
safety with the suppression of civil liberties and the 
targeting of political dissent.
(16) Congress has a responsibility to ensure that Federal 
efforts to combat antisemitism are effective, evidence-based, 
and consistent with democratic values, and to prevent the 
weaponization of antisemitism concerns for ulterior political 
objectives, requiring substantial Federal investment in 
education initiatives, civil rights enforcement, community 
security programs, and other evidence-based approaches to 
combating antisemitism and related forms of extremism and hate.

SEC. 3. STATEMENT OF POLICY AND SENSE OF CONGRESS.

(a) Statement of Policy.--It is the policy of the United States--
(1) to raise awareness and educate the United States public 
about the history of Jewish Americans and antisemitism in all 
of its forms and various manifestations;
(2) to use all available authorities to oppose 
antisemitism;
(3) not to use the fight against antisemitism as grounds or 
motive to pursue ulterior political agendas, including attacks 
on educational institutions for alleged political 
disagreements, suppression of constitutionally protected 
speech, or enforcement of ideological conformity;
(4) to ensure that all Federal antisemitism policies and 
programs are developed with meaningful input from diverse 
Jewish communities and are consistent with democratic values;
(5) to address antisemitism as connected to other forms of 
hatred and extremism through coalition-building and 
comprehensive prevention efforts; and
(6) to protect the autonomy and academic freedom of 
educational institutions while ensuring vigorous enforcement of 
civil rights protections against actual discrimination and 
harassment.
(b) Sense of Congress.--It is the sense of Congress that--
(1) as articulated in the Biden Administration's May 2023 
United States National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism there 
are several definitions of antisemitism which serve as valuable 
tools to raise awareness and increase understanding of 
antisemitism, including the non-legally binding definitions of 
antisemitism adopted in 2016 by the 31 member states of the 
International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance, the Nexus 
Document, and other such efforts; and all of the definitions 
are valuable tools to raise awareness and increase 
understanding of antisemitism, and should be utilized by 
Federal, State, and local agencies;
(2) the definitions are non-legally binding educational 
tools and should not be applied in punitive legal contexts, 
including immigration enforcement, deportation proceedings, or 
criminal prosecutions, for which they were never intended;
(3) criticism of Israeli government policies, when not 
motivated by or expressed through antisemitic tropes or 
discrimination against Jews, is a form of political speech 
protected by the First Amendment and does not constitute 
antisemitism;
(4) combating antisemitism requires protecting rather than 
undermining democratic institutions, civil liberties, academic 
freedom, and the rights of all communities; and
(5) the weaponization of antisemitism accusations to pursue 
partisan political agendas undermines genuine efforts to 
protect Jewish communities and breeds additional antisemitism.

SEC. 4. DESIGNATION OF A TITLE VI COORDINATOR AND DUTIES.

(a) Amendment.--Section 487(a) of the Higher Education Act of 1965 
(20 U.S.C. 1094(a)) is amended by adding at the end the following:

Amendment to the Constitution.''.
