The "Stop Antisemitism on College Campuses Act" aims to prohibit the distribution of State aid to higher education institutions that either support or fail to adequately address antisemitism on their campuses. Specifically, the bill stipulates that no State aid shall be granted to institutions that authorize, fund, or support antisemitic events or organizations, do not enforce their own codes of conduct regarding harassment and bullying, or fail to appropriately punish acts of antisemitism. The bill emphasizes the need for institutions to take a firm stance against antisemitism, which has reportedly increased following recent violent events involving Hamas.

Additionally, the bill defines antisemitism according to the working definition adopted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance in May 2016. This definition will guide the enforcement of the provisions outlined in the bill, ensuring that institutions are held accountable for their actions or inactions regarding antisemitic behavior. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
