House hearing on campus antisemitism

Matt Nosanchuk, former Deputy Assistant Secretary in the Department of Education's Office of Civil Rights, testifies at a Congressional hearing on antisemitism about how the Trump administration has made it more difficult to pursue hate speech cases, in Washington, D.C., U.S., on July 15, 2025. It is the latest in a series of House hearings on antisemitism at the university level, one that critics claim is a convenient way for Republicans to punish universities they consider too liberal or progressive, thereby undermining responses to hate speech and hate crimes.
