WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Representative Tracey Mann (KS-01) showed his staunch support in the fight against antisemitism by voting in favor of the Antisemitism Awareness Act, H.R. 6090. The bill, co-sponsored by Rep. Mann, aims to address discrimination against Jewish students on college campuses.
In a powerful speech on the House floor, Rep. Mann condemned the rise of antisemitic protests in the country, emphasizing, "These are not pro-Palestinian protests, they are ill-informed mobs who believe that Hamas, a terrorist organization, is good for the people of Gaza." He expressed concern over the spread of antisemitism in American higher education institutions, calling for a clear definition of antisemitism to help university administrators combat discrimination against Jewish students.
Rep. Mann's dedication to supporting Israel and Jewish students is evident in his voting record, where he has consistently advocated for measures to condemn terrorism and support Israel's defense. He has also been vocal about the need for a strong foreign policy, particularly in relation to Iran and its terrorist proxies.
As a member of various caucuses including the Abraham Accords Caucus, the Israel Allies Caucus, and the Transatlantic Friends of Israel Caucus, Rep. Mann remains committed to ensuring the safety and security of both his constituents in Kansas and the nation as a whole.
Through his actions and words, Rep. Mann continues to stand firm in his support for Israel and the fight against antisemitism, sending a clear message that America stands with Israel and Jewish students on college campuses.
