Legislation by a Republican senator would put terrorist supporters on the no-fly list, including if they had been disciplined for such conduct, in response to college protests.
FIRST ON FOX: Legislation being introduced on Tuesday would put terrorist supporters, including those backing Hamas and those who call for violence against Jews, on the no-fly list, as anti-Israel campus protests engulf colleges across the country. Sen. Roger Marshall, R-Kan.
Blackburn said it is 'unacceptable for terrorist sympathizers to threaten the safety of Jewish students in America with little to no consequence.' 'When protesters chant ‘We are Hamas’ and carry around ‘Death to America’ posters, we should believe them. Any student, professor or paid protester in America who promotes terrorism or engages in terrorist acts on behalf of Hamas should immediately be placed on the TSA No Fly List,' she said.
If passed by the Senate and signed by President Biden, the bipartisan Antisemitism Awareness Act would mandate that the Department of Education legally adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance's definition of antisemitism when enforcing anti-discrimination rules. Fox News’ Liz Elkind and Lindsey Kornick contributed to this report.
