President Biden's administration is moving to combat the "alarming rise" of anti-semitism at U.S. college campuses this week.
The move comes after weeks of anti-Israeli and pro-Hamas protests at campuses across the U.S., leading to demands for action from Republicans.The Justice Department and the Department of Homeland Security has begun hosting calls with campus and local law enforcement across the country.
Later this week, the White House says Education Secretary Miguel Cardona and Domestic Policy Advisor Neera Tanden will attend a site visit at a University and hold a roundtable with Jewish students. The administration did not clarify which school, however.
Jewishs students across the country have faced a spike in threats since Hamas carried out its massacre in Israel on October 7.
Jewish students at New York City College were locked inside a school library last week during a pro-Palestinian protest. That same night, pro-Palestinian protesters projected the messages "Glory to our Martyrs" and "Your Tuition is Funding Genocide in Gaza" on George Washington University’s library in Washington, D.C.
