קליפורניה עשויה להפוך למדינה הראשונה להגדיר 'יהודי' כמוצא אתני

הערכה

California is poised to make a legal distinction that no other state has attempted: classifying Jewish identity as an ethnicity and race for data collection purposes. This shifts how the state measures and addresses discrimination, since anti-Jewish bias often targets Jews as a people, not just as adherents of a religion. The practical effect would be visible on government forms from schools to prisons. The fight now moves to the Assembly, where the bill's fate determines whether California creates a precedent others may follow.
