Establishes State definition of anti-Semitism.

AI Summary

This bill establishes a state definition of anti-Semitism in New Jersey. The definition is based on the one adopted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance, which includes examples of discriminatory anti-Israel acts that can be considered anti-Semitic. The bill requires state officials and institutions, including educational institutions, to consider this definition when reviewing, investigating, or determining if there has been a violation of laws or regulations prohibiting discriminatory acts motivated by anti-Semitic intent. The bill also makes clear that it does not infringe on any rights protected by the First Amendment or New Jersey's constitution, and that it does not conflict with any local, state, or federal anti-discrimination laws or regulations.
