HB 1852 amends Oklahoma's discrimination law by adding specific definitions, including adopting the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) definition of antisemitism. The bill defines "antisemitism" as a perception of Jews expressed through hatred, covering both rhetoric and physical acts targeting Jewish individuals, property, or institutions. It also clarifies terms like "discriminatory practice," "equal," "national origin," and "person" for use in existing anti-discrimination statutes. This bill does not create new prohibitions but ensures consistent application of these definitions in discrimination cases. It takes effect November 1, 2025.
