College Rules

Republicans want to hold woke universities more accountable:

House Republicans are pushing the bill titled the No Tax Dollars For College Encampments Act amid thousands of arrests of pro-Palestinian students earlier this year. The bill, led by Rep. Jim Banks and GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik, targets universities which receive federal funding. Should the bill become law, such colleges will be required to be more transparent about their protest policies and report campus crime statistics. The bill has been supported by eight House Republicans so far as well as conservative groups such as Parents Defending Education Action. If adopted, it would amend the Higher Education Act of 1965 which aims to address reporting of campus protests. Following Hamas’ terror attacks against Israeli civilians last October, student activists across the country held encampment protests prompting ugly scenes and more than 3,100 arrests. In a statement to Fox News, Rep. Banks said the legislation would hold “woke universities accountable” and ensure protest rules are enforced “fairly and equally”.
