   BREAKING: The House just passed HR 6090, which expands the definition of antisemitism to include criticism of Israel.

   Let me be clear. People have rights. State governments do not have rights. This terrible bill sets a dangerous precedent & does nothing to actually decrease or stop the scourge of antisemitism. The Senate should not pass this bill and Biden should not sign it into law.

   • Bill repeated this.

     Imagine criminalizing criticism of Pakistan or Iran, or Mauritania as Islamophobic because each nation starts with "Islamic Republic of." It would be absurd, precisely because state nations do not have rights, people do.

     The same applies with antisemitism & criticism of Israel.
