1. Short title This Act may be cited as the Define to Defeat Act of 2024 . 2. Findings Congress makes the following findings: (1) The May 26, 2016, International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance definition of antisemitism is objective and clear, and the use of alternative definitions of antisemitism, including instead of or in addition to the IHRA definition, impairs enforcement efforts by adding multiple standards that leave room for subjective application and may fail to identify some of the most insidious modern manifestations of anti-Jewish hate. (2) Antisemitism, including harassment on the basis of actual or perceived Jewish origin, ancestry, ethnicity, identity, affiliation, or faith, or connection thereto, remains a persistent, pervasive, and disturbing problem in contemporary American society. (3) Jewish people continue to be a targeted minority in the United States. Data shows, for instance, that Jews are consistently the most likely of all religious groups to be victimized by incidents of hate, and that such incidents are increasing at an alarming rate. (4) United States officials and institutions have a responsibility to protect citizens from acts of hate and bigotry motivated by discriminatory animus, including antisemitism, and must be given the tools to do so. (5) Valid monitoring, informed analysis and investigation, and effective policymaking all require uniform definitions. (6) While there can be no exhaustive definition of antisemitism, as it can take many forms, the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s working definition has been an essential definitional tool used to determine contemporary manifestations of antisemitism, and includes useful examples of discriminatory anti-Israel acts that cross the line into antisemitism. (7) The International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance definition is used by various agencies of the Federal Government and the dozens of governments that are members of International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance. It is recommended for use by the European Council
