A new bill, LB 538, has been introduced in Nebraska to combat antisemitism in public schools and universities. The bill uses the IHRA Working Definition of Antisemitism to define antisemitism and requires schools to prohibit discrimination, including antisemitism. It also mandates the appointment of a Title VI coordinator to monitor and enforce corrective measures. Jewish students and organizations, including the Combat Antisemitism Movement and the Anti-Defamation League, spoke in support of the bill, emphasizing the need to address antisemitism and create a safe and respectful educational environment for all students.
