flag California’s 2026 law creating an antisemitism coordinator in schools faces a legal challenge over free speech concerns.

flag California is preparing to implement AB 715, a law set to take effect January 1, 2026, establishing an Office of Civil Rights with an Antisemitism Prevention Coordinator to combat antisemitism in K-12 schools. flag The law mandates training, prohibits discriminatory instruction and materials, and defines antisemitism using the IHRA framework. flag A lawsuit challenges the law, arguing it is too vague and risks chilling free speech, particularly criticism of Israel, while supporters say it’s vital for protecting Jewish students. flag A federal judge in Northern California is expected to rule soon on whether to block the law, with the outcome hinging on First Amendment concerns and teachers’ speech rights in the classroom.
