This bill mandates the inclusion of definitions for Antisemitism and Islamophobia in the State's diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging policies, as well as in policies for recipients of State funds. It directs the Office of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging, established under Executive Order No. 265 of 2021, to ensure that these definitions are integrated into the policies of all State agencies and personnel. Specifically, the bill requires the adoption of the working definition of Antisemitism from the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) and the working definition of Islamophobia from the United Nations (UN), along with relevant examples and guidelines from both organizations.

The bill emphasizes that the definitions of Antisemitism and Islamophobia should be utilized to inform and shape the policies concerning diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging across all State agencies and recipients of State funds. By doing so, it aims to foster a more inclusive environment that acknowledges and addresses these forms of discrimination. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
