Senate Joint Resolution 3, sponsored by Pody, establishes a comprehensive definition of antisemitism for the state of Tennessee. The resolution outlines various manifestations of antisemitism, including expressions of hatred towards Jews, dehumanizing stereotypes, and accusations against Jews as a collective group. It specifically addresses harmful actions such as justifying violence against Jews, denying the Holocaust, and holding Jews collectively responsible for the actions of the state of Israel. The resolution emphasizes the importance of recognizing these forms of antisemitism in the context of discrimination laws and policies.

Furthermore, the resolution urges state departments and agencies to consider antisemitism as evidence of discriminatory intent in legal matters, and encourages district attorneys to impose enhanced sentences for crimes motivated by antisemitism. It also calls on educational institutions to take the defined antisemitism into account when addressing complaints related to antisemitic incidents. Overall, the resolution aims to promote awareness and understanding of antisemitism while reinforcing protections against discrimination in Tennessee.
