[D. Ray]

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is trying to ram through the
"Antisemitism Awareness Act" to silence criticism of Jews and Israel as
hate speech and empower the federal government to crack down on anti-Israel
protests on college campuses.

That's a lie. That is not the bill's purpose.

What is the bill’s purpose then?

Here’s what will be illegal under this bill, among other things:

“Drawing comparisons of contemporary Israeli policy to that of the Nazis.”

You do realize that accusing Israel of genocide is “drawing comparisons of
contemporary Israeli policy to that of the Nazis”?

I’m not even going to mention that a lot of people on the left are drawing
direct comparisons when they criticize what Israel is doing. If I remember
correctly, you did it yourself in the past.

And now you support shutting them down?

Sen. Chuck Schumer is pushing ahead with his plan to extinguish our First
Amendment rights by jamming the "Antisemitism Awareness Act" into the "must
pass" NDAA—despite Mike Johnson saying he would not allow it.

“We want it on the NDAA, that’s where it should go. It’s the only way to
get it done," Schumer told Jewish Insider on Monday.

As a reminder, Mike Johnson demanded Israel/Ukraine aid funding be tied to
border security only to cave completely after Oct 7.
