The Trump administration’s recent recommendation to strip the American Bar Association of its near-monopoly power to accredit law schools is not a partisan overreach. It is a long-overdue reckoning with an organization that has abandoned its core duty: enforcing standards that protect equal opportunity, academic freedom, and nondiscrimination.

An organization I founded, S.A.F.E. Campus, formerly S.A.F.E. CUNY, has lived this failure firsthand. Our repeated, detailed complaints against the City University of New York School of Law exposed textbook violations of the ABA’s own standards. The ABA’s response, dismissal without explanation, refusal to hear victims, and institutional self-protection, reveals an accreditor captured by ideology and unwilling to police antisemitism when it targets Israeli Americans and Zionist Jews.
