GOP legislators send letters to Ivy League campuses denouncing their rising antisemitism

Dozens of Republican Congress members signed letters on Nov. 1 accusing five Ivy League universities of having condoned or failed to properly condemn antisemitism on campus.

Rep. Ralph Norman and 26 other GOP legislators inveighed against “the rise in antisemitic statements and pro-Hamas protests” at the five elite universities, expressing “profound disappointment in administrators for their half-hearted, hypocritical, or absent responses.”

The letters were addressed to the presidents of Harvard University, Yale University, Columbia University, Cornell University, and the University of Pennsylvania.
