Additional Measures To Combat Anti-Semitism

President Donald Trump has issued Executive Order 14188 to strengthen efforts against anti-Semitism, particularly in educational institutions, following a rise in anti-Semitic incidents after the October 2023 Hamas attacks. The order mandates federal agencies to identify legal tools and actions to address anti-Semitic harassment and violence, with a focus on protecting Jewish students on campuses. This action reaffirms a previous executive order and could lead to increased federal scrutiny and potential legal actions against institutions failing to address anti-Semitism, potentially igniting legal and political debates over campus free speech and discrimination policies.
