House passes bill to expand definition of antisemitism amid growing campus protests over Gaza war
The House has passed legislation that would establish a broader definition of antisemitism for the Department of Education to enforce anti-discrimination laws.
'If passed by the Senate and signed into law, the bill would broaden the legal definition of antisemitism to include the “targeting of the state of Israel, conceived as a Jewish collectivity.'"
Pardon me, but what is this horseshit?

Tragic shit. Just another day in the conservative fascist multiverse
This is happening under democrats tho....
Democrats are right of center. America has no major left wing party.
Holy shit, this app is so much more politically educated than Reddit.
Heh Lemmy is just left of center so it seems better. You'll reconsider your position when you meet the tankies.
Reddit is full of resistance liberals
This is happening in the House that is controlled by Republicans. Unfortunately a lot of Democrats voted for it too, but the only meaningful opposition also came from Dems. So Dems are split while Rs are all in on the genocide.
There is like 15 dems in opposition and hundreds for it.
95 Dems voted yes. 92 voted "present," 13 voted "nay," and 13 did not vote.
Republicans - who again control the chamber - voted 216-1 in favor.
I stand by the accuracy of my comment.
Yeah so like I said there are only like 15 against it. If all Republicans in the senate vote for it there only needs to be like 10 dems to say yes for it to pass and if we look at percentages it becomes clear this bill easily has enough votes and Biden will 100% sign it.
You thinking it won't is just cope.
Do you know what fascism actually is?
Do you?
