New Jersey S589 aims to prevent institutions of higher education from authorizing, funding, or supporting events or organizations that promote antisemitism or hate speech on campus. The bill defines "antisemitism" using the working definition adopted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance on May 26, 2016. This legislation responds to concerns about the glorification of violence and antisemitic rhetoric following the October 7, 2023, attack by Hamas, which targeted Israeli civilians.
