Trump administration finds Harvard failed to protect Jewish students, threatens to cut all funding
CAMBRIDGE, MASSACHUSETTS, JUL 1 – The Trump administration found Harvard deliberately indifferent to antisemitic harassment, threatening to cut $9 billion in federal funding if changes are not made immediately, officials said.
- On July 1, the Trump administration informed states it would withhold nearly $6.8 billion in federal K-12 education funding nationwide.
- This action reflects the administration advancing its 2026 budget priorities before Congress, which has until July 18 to consider a rescissions proposal.
- Education leaders warned that the freeze endangers staff hiring and federally mandated student services, adding strain across school budgets and classrooms.
- Carissa Moffat Miller stated, "They cannot withhold funding from students," while legal experts note that courts often challenge such freezes as unconstitutional.
- If Congress does not approve the rescission by the deadline, funds must be released, but the hold causes immediate financial strain and likely legal challenges for schools.
