Founded in 2021 and chaired by Commissioner Ken Goldberg, the THGAAC is the official state agency reporting directly to the Governor’s office and the Legislature on issue related to antisemitism in Texas. The Commission educates and advises state leaders on effective strategies to understand, identify and combat antisemitism. Since October 7th, Governor Greg Abbott has tasked the THGAAC with developing ways for Texans to report and take proactive measures against antisemitism. The Commission’s recommendations have informed key policies, including the executive order aimed at safeguarding Jewish students on college campuses.

The national survey of American college students found that prior to Oct. 7, 67 percent of Jewish students said they felt physically safe on campus; after Oct. 7, only 46 percent felt physically safe. “Jewish students are experiencing a wave of antisemitism unlike anything we’ve seen before, but shockingly, non-Jewish students barely see it,” said Jonathan A. Greenblatt, ADL CEO. “Since the Oct. 7 massacre in Israel, Jewish students feel increasingly threatened on campus – but college leaders are not doing enough to address this very real fear of antisemitism.” As antisemitism continues to rise on college campuses and around the world, your generosity is especially critical right now. Your tax-deductible gift will help inspire every Jewish college student to make an enduring commitment to Jewish life, learning, and Israel.
