We are pleased to support JASA, which includes serious tools that can tangibly help protect the American Jewish community. Many of the same tools are also included in the Antisemitism Response and Prevention Act, which Nexus also supports,” Kevin Rachlin, Nexus Project’s vice president of government relations, said in a statement to JTA. “Importantly, neither of these two bills seek to push forward an unhelpful, contested definition of antisemitism that would risk criminalizing political speech.”
