Antisemitic trash bill. Stop policing where Jews donate their money and start making it safer for Jews in your districts which are exploding with anti Jewish violence. I realize you don’t think you’re antisemtic writing bills like this but that’s exactly how unconscious bias works. Have any of you even thought to see if you’re writing legislation that mirrors what took place in the early early years of nazi germany before the holocaust (hint: you are.)
