"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.
This bill prohibits New Jersey from providing state aid to public colleges and universities that: (1) support antisemitic events or organizations, (2) fail to enforce anti-harassment policies, or (3) do not adequately punish antisemitic acts (including expulsion or criminal referrals). It defines "antisemitism" using the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's 2016 standard. The law directly affects all New Jersey public institutions of higher education receiving state funding, requiring them to address antisemitism or risk losing financial support. The bill takes effect immediately upon enactment.
