Trump expected to sign order to foster probes of anti-Semitism on campus
President Trump plans to sign an executive order Wednesday that defines the Jewish people as a nationality for purposes of federal civil rights law, an effort to step up enforcement against episodes of anti-Semitism on college campuses, two administration officials said.
Defining Jewish people as an ethnic group and not just a religious one allows the government to consider discrimination against the group as a violation of a key civil rights law. That means schools could lose federal funding if they fail to combat discrimination against Jewish students.
Another rootin-tootin Executive Order! I think this brings Trump to 36 more EOs than Obama in the same period.
It's Okay When Trump Does It!™
I really need to get T-shirts and hats made with that on it.
In red, of course.
