Additional Measures to Combat Anti-Semitism

President Donald Trump has issued an order to intensify efforts against anti-Semitism, particularly following the October 7, 2023, Hamas attacks, which have led to a surge in anti-Semitic incidents in schools and universities. This action reaffirms and expands upon Executive Order 13899 by directing government agencies to identify legal tools and report on civil rights violations related to anti-Semitism in educational institutions. The order's legal implications include potential increased enforcement of civil rights laws and scrutiny of institutions, while politically, it underscores a commitment to protecting Jewish students and combating discrimination.
