URGENT & TIME SENSITIVE – TAKE 1 MINUTE TO PROTECT ETHNIC STUDIESWe are winning—but the fight isn’t over.
Thanks to powerful, intersectional organizing from students, educators, and community members like you, AB 1468 is tentatively being pulled from its hearing. This is a major victory. The bill sought to gut Ethnic Studies and censor conversations about Palestine, colonization, anti-Arab racism, and Islamophobia. Together, we forced its now anticipated withdrawal.
But instead of listening to us, they’re doubling down.
AB 715 is now being quietly gutted and amended to push the same dangerous agenda—this time under the guise of combating antisemitism. Rumored changes would weaponize a politicized definition of antisemitism to silence educators who teach about Palestine, replacing honest education with fear and censorship.
Tell your Assemblymembers: We won’t trade one bad bill for another. We are watching AB 715 closely. Stand up for Ethnic Studies, academic freedom, and Palestinian voices.
