Introduced·2/5/24

New Jersey A3558 establishes the state's definition of antisemitism and funds a public awareness campaign on bias crime reporting.

New Jersey A3558 establishes the state's definition of antisemitism, aligning it with the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's definition. The bill also appropriates $100,000 to the Office of the Attorney General for a public awareness campaign aimed at promoting bias crime reporting and educating the public on available resources. This initiative seeks to empower citizens to identify and report bias crimes, particularly those motivated by antisemitism, through the New Jersey Bias Crimes Reporting Unit.
