President Donald Trump has signed an executive order to include discrimination against Jews as a violation of law in certain cases amid a crackdown on rising anti-Semitism in the United States.

The order, published by the White House on Wednesday, aims to combat anti-Semitism in colleges and universities by threatening to cut off or withhold federal funding to educational institutions who fail to act against discrimination.
