Georgia Antisemitism Bill is now HB 144

ACTION NEEDED TODAY!

HB 30 has been tabled and the language for the IHRA Definition of Antisemitism has been put into HB 144. Do not let the title (George L. Burgess Act) confuse you - the language of the bill has been changed through a process of substitution. The bill made it through the Senate committee process and is set to be on the Senate floor on Monday, March 27th. Now is the time to contact your Georgia Senator!
