Zachor Legal Institute

Central to Zachor’s mission is the belief that legal mechanisms can and should be leveraged to prevent abuses by those seeking to undermine fundamental rights or promote discriminatory agendas. To this end, Zachor’s approach centers on advocating for regulators to enforce rules and laws that ensure accountability for anti-Israel activists who violate legal standards. By drawing attention to potential breaches in existing regulations, Zachor aims to hold bad actors responsible and to uphold the rule of law. Another core facet of Zachor’s work involves applying legal instruments to combat terrorism funding, thereby undermining the financial networks that embolden extremist elements and threaten democratic values.

In addition, Zachor Legal Institute produces scholarly work designed to inform and reinforce litigators’ strategies both in court and before regulatory bodies. By conducting in-depth research and analysis, the organization equips legal professionals with robust, evidence-based arguments that address complex issues at the intersection of international law, civil rights, and national security. These scholarly contributions are supplemented by the filing of amicus briefs in federal courts, through which Zachor offers expert perspectives intended to clarify legal principles and strengthen the positions of parties defending against antisemitic or anti-Israel claims.

Through these initiatives, Zachor Legal Institute embodies a commitment to justice, regulatory enforcement, and the defense of democratic principles. Its multifaceted approach exemplifies how focused legal activism can serve as a powerful tool against antisemitism, threats to Israel’s legitimacy, and the broader challenges posed by terrorism financing.
