The bill declares that antisemitism and antisemitic acts are against the public policy of Kansas, particularly in relation to public educational institutions and law enforcement agencies. It adopts a non-legally binding definition of antisemitism based on the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's working definition as of May 26, 2016. The definition includes actions such as encouraging violence against Jewish individuals or property, concealing identity to harass Jewish individuals in educational settings, and funding antisemitic curricula or activities in educational programs.

Additionally, the bill emphasizes that it does not infringe upon any rights protected by the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution or the Bill of Rights of the Kansas Constitution. The act will take effect upon its publication in the statute book.
