Opponents of antisemitism on campus frustrated by Schumer's failure to move on legislation: 'Stunning'

Pro-Israel leaders and activists express frustration and disappointment that Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has yet to plan a vote on a bill aimed at tackling antisemitism on college campuses. Many fear the delay could lead to the bill getting 'watered down' or potentially derailed altogether. The bill in question is the Antisemitism Awareness Act, which seeks to mandate that the Department of Education adopt the same definition of 'antisemitism' used by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance. Schumer has promised to put the Antisemitism Awareness Act up for a vote before the end of the year, according to Axios.
