But would it not extend to individuals who are representatives of those institutions?
The bill cites violations of Title VI of the Civil Rights Code. I see nothing about criminal consequences.
The following is the penalty for violating Title VI. It appears to me that an institution can have funds reduced.

If a recipient of federal assistance is found to have discriminated and voluntary compliance cannot be achieved, the federal agency providing the assistance should either initiate fund termination proceedings or refer the matter to the Department of Justice for appropriate legal action. Aggrieved individuals may file administrative complaints with the federal agency that provides funds to a recipient, or the individuals may file suit for appropriate relief in federal court. Title VI itself prohibits intentional discrimination. However, most funding agencies have regulations implementing Title VI that prohibit recipient practices that have the effect of discrimination on the basis of race, color, or national origin

If a university president, Dean of Research or similar person does anything at all that fits the definition of antisemitism by IHRA, all it takes is an accusation that it has led to action against someone that is Jewish, and then all hell can break loose. If the Dean of Research does not approve of funds to renovate a Jewish professor's lab, and that Dean previously spoke on something that the IHRA says is antisemitic, then it's game on.
DOJ can get a court order to compel compliance with whatever an agency wants to see happen in order to not violate Title VI. This will be used against people, not institutions. But because consequences will be applied against institutions as well, innocent people will suffer as funding trickles down to many levels. And if the DOJ gets a court order then things get criminal if you violate the order - and why would you comply with agency demands regarding activity that is protected by the First Amendment? This will spiral very quickly to criminal action and people losing jobs. Every bit of this is unconstitutional.

Oh so the government can stop all funding to an institution if one of their faculty or students taught the fact that the leadership of the bolsheviks during the Russian revolution was overwhelmingly made up of Jews?
