Texas Gov. Greg Abbott
  • Texas Gov. Greg Abbott announced he will give schools material to combat prejudice against Jews.
  • The move comes amid heightened concerns about antisemitism stemming from the Israel-Hamas war.
  • It's too early to tell if hate crimes against Jewish and Muslim people have risen, but hate crimes did increase in the US last year.

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott is encouraging schools to use curriculum resources from the state about the war between Israel and Hamas.

Abbott said in a statement that the resources will "supplement the current comprehensive approach to teaching world studies in Texas."
