This bill, HR 3282, is going to make things worse for everyone. It's not fair that they're singling out one group for protection when everyone should be treated equally. It's just going to create more division and tension on college campuses. I don't see how this is going to help anyone in the long run. It's a sad day when our government is passing laws that only benefit a select few.

I think this bill is really important because it helps protect Jewish students from harassment on college campuses. I'm glad they're taking steps to address this issue. It's about time we start standing up against hate and discrimination. This bill could make a real difference in the lives of many people. #UnitedStatesHRBill3282 #PreventingAntisemiticHarassment #SupportingEquality
