Pennsylvania Republican House leaders called on the Attorney General to investigate the School District of Philadelphia for alleged discrimination against Jewish students. The House members sent a letter Attorney General Dave Sunday outlining what they said was a systemic pattern of discrimination against Jewish students that prevents them from equal access to education. The letter was released after the Chairman of the U.S. House of Representatives Education and Workforce Committee investigated three school districts, including Philadelphia, last year after receiving reports of anti-Semitism and reported harassment. NBC10 reached out to the school district for comment and we are waiting to hear back.
