Protect Jewish civil rights and the First Amendment at Columbia

Where Jewish students are targeted with threats of antisemitic violence or willful intimidation, any students engaged who are responsible should face swift sanction from the college in question. Too few students have been expelled for such activity. Where colleges fail to protect civil rights, the suspension of federal grants is a reasonable recourse. Still, it is concerning and un-American for the federal government to deport students or otherwise seek to intimidate American students into silence simply because they offer pro-Palestinian or anti-Israeli sentiments.

Both things are happening at Columbia University in New York City.
