Texas Right to Know: Pending Texas Legislation Only Teaches Jewish Holocaust While Excluding the Many Others
- Senator Jose Menendez's SB735, which addresses Holocaust education and training for students in public schools and higher education institutions, is scheduled for review by the Texas House Calendar's Committee in May 2025.
- SB735 focuses solely on Jewish Holocaust education and has raised concerns from Texas Right to Know about excluding other historical events and groups.
- Multiple legal opinions argue that SB735’s use of the IHRA antisemitism definition is unlawful, violating First Amendment rights by punishing expression based on perception.
- The US Western District Court ruled on 10/28/2024 that the government cannot prohibit expression simply because society finds it offensive, affirming free speech even for hateful ideas.
- The bill will cost Texans $1,296,874 through 2027, and critics warn that antisemitism laws could expand to prosecute all Texans, urging defense of free speech within two years.
