The Texas House passed a bill on Tuesday that would require public schools and colleges to adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s definition of antisemitism.
Lawmakers approved the bill by a 134-2 vote, putting it one step closer to getting signed into law by Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) after the legislation passed the state Senate earlier this month. The Lone Star State’s measure comes as the Trump administration has made a controversial nationwide push to crack down on antisemitism in educational institutions after anti-Israel protests have rocked campuses since Hamas’s Oct. 7, 2023, terrorist attack.
