Countering Antisemitism Act

The Countering Antisemitism Act establishes a National Coordinator within the Executive Office of the President and an Interagency Task Force to coordinate federal efforts against antisemitism across government agencies. The bill requires annual threat assessments of antisemitic violent extremism from the FBI, DHS, and National Counterterrorism Center, and mandates reports from relevant agencies on implementing the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism. It also requires the Department of Education to designate a senior officer to address antisemitic discrimination in higher education and to report on complaints, while directing a study on Holocaust education in schools. Additionally, the legislation amends the Nonprofit Security Grant Program to require public reporting on grant applications and awards, and designates May as Jewish American Heritage Month.
