Wiesenthal Center Commends CA State Assembly for Resolution Urging Universities to Condemn Wave of Campus Anti-Semitism

July 14, 2015

The Simon Wiesenthal commends the California State Assembly for recently passing a resolution urging California campuses to condemn all forms of anti-Semitism. The State Senate passed the resolution in May.

“In the wake of virulent attacks on Jewish campus institutions - including swastika graffiti on a Jewish fraternity house – California’s highest officials and leaders have taken a vital public position on the odious nature of the ever growing and menacing anti-Semitism,” said Aron Hier, Director of the Wiesenthal Center’s Campus Outreach program.

The Simon Wiesenthal Center is one of the largest international Jewish human rights organizations with over 400,000 member families in the United States. It is an NGO at international agencies including the United Nations, UNESCO, the OSCE, the OAS, the Council of Europe and the Latin American Parliament (Parlatino).
