S 3340 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

"Stop Antisemitism on College Campuses Act"; prohibits distribution of State aid to an institution of higher education that authorizes, funds, or supports antisemitic events or organizations or fails to punish acts of antisemitism on campus.

The "Stop Antisemitism on College Campuses Act" (S 3340) would withhold New Jersey state funding from colleges and universities that support antisemitic events or organizations, fail to enforce anti-harassment policies, or do not appropriately punish antisemitic behavior. It defines antisemitism using the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's 2016 working definition and requires institutions to address such incidents through academic, professional, or legal consequences. This law directly affects all New Jersey institutions of higher education receiving state aid, including public and private colleges. The bill aims to ensure campuses uphold safety for Jewish students, faculty, and staff by linking state funding to compliance with these standards.
