District 3 Commissioner Dana Barrett introduced a solution supporting Georgia's latest hate crime legislation. House Bill 30 would create an official definition of anti-Semitism and could aid in the prosecution of hate crimes. Hear more from District 3 Commissioner Dana Barrett. Unfortunately though Georgia did pass a hate crime bill in 2020, it didn't specifically include anti-Semitism. So occasionally just because of the way Jewishness is, some of the acts that we know if we listen to them are anti-Semitic sort of fall through the cracks of hate crime law. Commissioner Barrett's resolution passed unanimously.
