Call on State Legislatures to Adopt the IHRA Definition of Antisemitism

Call on State Legislatures to Adopt the IHRA Definition of Antisemitism

As antisemitism continues to surge throughout America and worldwide, state legislators across the country are deciding whether to adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism.

Since its conception, the IHRA definition of antisemitism has been applauded and recognized across the ideological spectrum as one of the leading defenses against Jew hatred due to its ability to aid governments and organizations in properly identifying antisemitism so that it can be adequately countered. In fact, IHRA has been widely adopted by more than 1,100 domestic and international entities, including educational institutions, a plethora of municipalities and state legislatures in the U.S., the Obama, Trump, and Biden administrations, the State Department, and nearly 40 countries.

World leaders have further encouraged the adoption of IHRA as a means to combat antisemitism in all of its forms. United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres called on governments worldwide to support IHRA as antisemitism surpasses its highest rate since the 1970s.

By clearly identifying incidents of discrimination against Jews and emphasizing the importance of the Jewish community’s connection to Israel, IHRA stands firmly against the world’s most ardent antisemites as well as Israel’s notorious detractors.

Join us in urging legislatures across America to stand boldly against Jew hatred by adopting IHRA's definition of antisemitism without delay.

States currently considering IHRA legislation:
Arizona, Arkansas, Georgia, Indiana, Maine, New Jersey, South Carolina, Virginia
