(Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 prohibits discrimination based on race, color, or national origin in federally funded programs or activities.)</p><p>The bill requires federal agencies, LEAs, and IHEs to consider the definition of <em>antisemitism</em> contained in a December 11, 2019, <a href=\"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2019/12/16/2019-27217/combating-anti-semitism\">executive order</a> when reviewing or investigating whether a&nbsp;discriminatory act&nbsp;or omission was motivated by discriminatory antisemitic intent. The executive order incorporates the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's (IHRA's) working definition of <em>antisemitism</em>. According to the&nbsp;IHRA's working definition, <em>antisemitism</em> is a certain perception of Jews, which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews.</p>","updateDate":"2026-10-06T20:26:19Z"},"markets":[],"stateBills":[],"meta":{"sources":["congress.gov"],"latencyMs":622,"ts":"2026-10-14T08:10:55.433Z"},"nextActions":{"inspect":[],"related":[{"description":"Search related legislation","method":"GET","url":"https://simplefunctions.dev/api/public/query-gov?q=No%20Antisemitism%20in%20Education%20Act%20of%202026"}]}}
