“A group consisting of University of California (UC) students, faculty, staff and labor unions is suing the Trump administration, alleging violations of their academic freedom and free speech rights. The lawsuit, filed on Tuesday in US District Court for the Northern District of California, accuses the Trump administration of attempting to ‘commandeer this public university system and to purge from its campuses viewpoints with which the President and his administration’ disagree. Last month, the administration fined the University of California, Los Angeles $1.2 billion and halted federal research funding after the Justice Department (DOJ) found the school violated federal civil rights law. A judge, though, ordered the administration to restore a portion of that $584 million in funding on Aug. 15. The DOJ, in its July report, accused UCLA of ‘acting with deliberate indifference in creating a hostile educational environment for Jewish and Israeli students.'” (09/17/25)
