The Antisemitism Awareness act that I made reference to earlier, working with Senator Scott and a group of Bipartisan senators would mandate that the Department of Education considers a widely accepted definition of antisemitism in carrying out its enforcement actions. The Department of Education has an Office of Civil Rights. That office is empowered to conduct these investigations and we have to provide more funding, by the way, for that office to do these investigations. They are badly, badly underfunded right now. But Senator Scott and I have worked together on this anti Semitism legislation for almost a decade now, since 2016. (03:49–04:06)
