Criminal Justice (Civil Rights)

SB 95 prohibits antisemitic discrimination across New Mexico by amending the Human Rights Act. It defines "antisemitic" as hatred toward Jewish people (including verbal or physical acts against them or those perceived as Jewish, their property, or Jewish community spaces) and explicitly includes this form of bias under existing anti-discrimination protections. The bill applies to all entities covered by the Human Rights Act, including employers, public accommodations, government bodies, and their employees or contractors. It ensures individuals harmed by antisemitic discrimination can file claims through the established Human Rights Act process, without creating new enforcement mechanisms.
