Bill > S0419

This bill amends the South Carolina Code of Laws to provide a framework in which anti-Semitism is considered for all laws prohibiting discriminatory acts, and to educate state personnel and officials on anti-Semitism. It defines anti-Semitism based on the definition adopted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance, including contemporary examples, and specifies that the definition does not include criticism of Israel similar to that leveled against any other country. The bill ensures that the definition is used in reviewing, investigating, or deciding on violations of anti-discrimination laws, and that it is incorporated into educational programs for state personnel on issues related to discrimination, diversity, equity, inclusion, and anti-bias training.
