The Republicans of the house require anti -Semitic university documents from California

The Republicans of the Chamber require that the best medical schools in California put years of internal documents as part of an investigation into anti -Semitism presumed in institutions.

The president of the Education and Work Committee in the Tim Walberg Chamber, R-Mich., Established a deadline of two weeks in letters at the University of California in Los Angeles and the UC San Francisco medical schools. The house is investigating how universities responded to Jewish relationships “experiencing hostility and fear” on their campuses.

Walberg’s letter requires universities to have been putting “all documents and communications” since September 1, 2021, concerning reports or anti -Semitic incident complaints. This requires that they include “any communication between administrators or staff concerning the complaint”.

“The Committee has realized that Jewish students, teachers and patients have experienced hostility and fear at university, and the university has not responded significantly to solve and mitigate this problem,” Walberg said in the letter.

The letter to the UCSF cites incidents such as Jewish students testifying to the committee that they “hidden aspects of their Jewish identity” while frequenting the university.

In another case, a student would have told a Jewish student that “the Jews control the banks”. A laboratory technician would have told the same Jewish student that Israel deserved what had happened on October 7, according to the letter.

Walberg also sent a similar letter to the University of Illinois College of Medicine.

The investigation in the House is separate from the Trump administration examination of anti -Semitism allegations at the UCLA. President Donald Trump’s administration has already suspended $ 584 million in federal UCLA subsidies after the Ministry of Justice announced that it found that the school had violated the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment and title VI of the civil rights law of 1964.

The administration said earlier this month that he was looking for $ 1 billion at UCLA to settle allegations of discrimination and anti-Semitism in exchange for restoration of federal funds.

The proposed agreement, sent to school on August 8, obliges the UCLA to pay a billion dollars to the federal government on several payments, as well as to establish a complaint fund of $ 172 million for the alleged victims of violations of title VII of the civil rights law, which prohibits discrimination in terms of employment, color, religion, sex or national origin.

In a declaration provided to Fox News Digital, UC President James Milliken said the university system had received the document with the offer and examined it.

“Earlier this week, we proposed to engage in a dialogue of good faith with the (justice) department to protect the university and its critical research mission,” said Milliken at the time. “As a public university, we are the guardians of taxpayers, and a payment of this scale would completely devastate the largest public university system in our country and inflict great evil on our students and all Californians.”

“Americans through this great nation are counting on the vital work UCLA And the UC system for technologies and medical therapies that save lives, increase the American economy and protect our national security. “”

“Demanding $ 1 billion in a research establishment funded by the public is an abusive use of taxes that will harm the University’s mission to serve students and the public,” he said in a statement. “The UCLA, and the largest UC system, have taken significant measures to clearly indicate that the fight against anti -Semitism and the protection of Jewish students, teachers and community members on campus is an absolute priority.”

In July, the UCLA accepted pay $ 6 million To settle a lawsuit brought by Jewish students and teachers on the treatment of anti-Israeli demonstrations by the school, in particular by allowing demonstrators to ban Jews from a part of the campus known as the “Jewish exclusion zone”.
