                Executive Order 14188 of January 29, 2025

                
Additional Measures To Combat Anti-Semitism

                By the authority vested in me as President by the 
                Constitution and the laws of the United States of 
                America, it is hereby ordered:

                Section 1. Purpose. My Administration has fought and 
                will continue to fight anti-Semitism in the United 
                States and around the world. On December 11, 2019, I 
                issued Executive Order 13899, my first Executive Order 
                on Combating Anti-Semitism, finding that students, in 
                particular, faced anti-Semitic harassment in schools 
                and on university and college campuses. Executive Order 
                13899 provided interpretive assistance on the 
                enforcement of the Nation's civil rights laws to ensure 
                that they would protect American Jews to the same 
                extent to which all other American citizens are 
                protected. The prior administration effectively 
                nullified Executive Order 13899 by failing to give the 
                terms of the order full force and effect throughout the 
                Government. This order reaffirms Executive Order 13899 
                and directs additional measures to advance the policy 
                thereof in the wake of the Hamas terrorist attacks of 
                October 7, 2023, against the people of Israel. These 
                attacks unleashed an unprecedented wave of vile anti-
                Semitic discrimination, vandalism, and violence against 
                our citizens, especially in our schools and on our 
                campuses. Jewish students have faced an unrelenting 
                barrage of discrimination; denial of access to campus 
                common areas and facilities, including libraries and 
                classrooms; and intimidation, harassment, and physical 
                threats and assault. A joint report by the House 
                Committees on Education and the Workforce, Energy and 
                Commerce, Judiciary, Oversight and Accountability, 
                Veterans' Affairs, and Ways and Means calls the Federal 
                Government's failure to fight anti-Semitism and protect 
                Jewish students ``astounding.'' This failure is 
                unacceptable and ends today.

                Sec. 2. Policy. It shall be the policy of the United 
                States to combat anti-Semitism vigorously, using all 
                available and appropriate legal tools, to prosecute, 
                remove, or otherwise hold to account the perpetrators 
                of unlawful anti-Semitic harassment and violence.

                Sec. 3. Additional Measures to Combat Campus Anti-
                Semitism. (a) Within 60 days of the date of this order, 
                the head of each executive department or agency 
                (agency) shall submit a report to the President, 
                through the Assistant to the President for Domestic 
                Policy, identifying all civil and criminal authorities 
                or actions within the jurisdiction of that agency, 
                beyond those already implemented under Executive Order 
                13899, that might be used to curb or combat anti-
                Semitism, and containing an inventory and analysis of 
                all pending administrative complaints, as of the date 
                of the report, against or involving institutions of 
                higher education alleging civil-rights violations 
                related to or arising from post-October 7, 2023, campus 
                anti-Semitism.

                    (b) The report submitted by the Attorney General 
                under this section shall additionally include an 
                inventory and an analysis of all court cases, as of the 
                date of the report, against or involving institutions 
                of higher education alleging civil-rights violations 
                related to or arising from post-October 7, 2023, campus 
                anti-Semitism and indicate whether the Attorney General 
                intends to or has taken any action with respect to such 
                matters, including filing statements of interest or 
                intervention.
                    (c) The Attorney General is encouraged to employ 
                appropriate civil-rights enforcement authorities, such 
                as 18 U.S.C. 241, to combat anti-Semitism.

[[Page 8848]]

                    (d) The report submitted by the Secretary of 
                Education under this section shall additionally include 
                an inventory and an analysis of all Title VI complaints 
                and administrative actions, including in K-12 
                education, related to anti-Semitism--pending or 
                resolved after October 7, 2023--within the Department's 
                Office for Civil Rights.
                    (e) In addition to identifying relevant authorities 
                to curb or combat anti-Semitism generally required by 
                this section, the Secretary of State, the Secretary of 
                Education, and the Secretary of Homeland Security, in 
                consultation with each other, shall include in their 
                reports recommendations for familiarizing institutions 
                of higher education with the grounds for 
                inadmissibility under 8 U.S.C. 1182(a)(3) so that such 
                institutions may monitor for and report activities by 
                alien students and staff relevant to those grounds and 
                for ensuring that such reports about aliens lead, as 
                appropriate and consistent with applicable law, to 
                investigations and, if warranted, actions to remove 
                such aliens.

                Sec. 4. General Provisions. (a) Nothing in this order 
                shall be construed to impair or otherwise affect

(i) the authority granted by law to an executive department or agency, or 
the head thereof; or

(ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget 
relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.

                    (b) This order shall be implemented consistent with 
                applicable law and subject to the availability of 
                appropriations.
                    (c) This order is not intended to, and does not, 
                create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, 
                enforceable at law or in equity by any party against 
                the United States, its departments, agencies, or 
                entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any 
                other person.
                
                
                    (Presidential Sig.)

                THE WHITE HOUSE,

                    January 29, 2025.
