Americans who identify as Asian make up roughly 7 percent of the U.S. population. Jews, who make up just 1.75 percent of the population, are more than twice as likely to experience hate crimes as Asian Americans.<\/p>\n<p>Biden in March signed into law the COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act, which seeks to make the reporting of hate crimes easier for the public and was written in the wake of the #StopAsianHate social media campaign. The bill also directs the Department of Justice to give grants to state and local governments to study ways to reduce hate crimes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My message to all of those of you who are hurting is: We see you. And the Congress has said: We see you. And we are committed to stop the hatred and the bias,&#8221; Biden said at the bill signing ceremony.<\/p>\n<p>Biden, who during his early days in the White House made hate-crime enforcement a top priority for his Department of Justice, has largely overlooked the disproportionate attacks on Jews. His late-May statement that denounced &#8220;despicable&#8221; anti-Semitic attacks came after a coalition of Jewish organizations sent a letter that called on the White House to do more to stem the violence.<\/p>\n<p>The FBI recorded 196 hate crime incidents that singularly targeted transgender individuals, On the campaign trail Biden pledged that his administration would help eradicate the &#8220;epidemic of violence against the transgender community, particularly transgender women of color.&#8221; Although the FBI has not released demographic information on victims of anti-transgender hate crimes, blacks make up a plurality of alleged offenders at 38 percent.<\/p>\n<p>Offenses against Muslims made up just 1 percent of total hate crimes at 104 incidents, just 5 more than offenses against lesbians. Hate crimes against Muslims in 2020 significantly dropped from the previous year, when 180 instances of bias were recorded.<\/p>\n<p>The FBI in 2020 received 7,759 recorded instances of hate crimes from more than 15,000 law enforcement agencies nationwide. Hate crimes that target an individual&#8217;s race, ethnicity, or ancestry were the most common, representing 64 percent of all recorded incidents.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More American Jews\u00a0suffered hate crime attacks in 2020 than Asians, Muslims, and transgender people combined, according to FBI crime tracking data.
