Special Commission on Combatting Antisemitism

The Massachusetts Special Commission on Combating Antisemitism is seeking student testimonials/feedback on the state of antisemitism in Massachusetts K-12 schools. Students who have experienced antisemitism in public or private K-12 school settings in the Commonwealth are encouraged to contact the co-chairs of the Commission, Representative Simon Cataldo and Senator John Velis, at SCCA@malegislature.gov. We are planning to hold our next meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 19, at the State House, with a virtual option. We expect the agenda for this meeting to be posted soon. Some students who contact us and would like to speak before the full commission will be invited to do so. We encourage anyone who is interested in appearing before the commission to reach out by November 15.
