The Trump administration said it has canceled $400 million worth of taxpayer grants and contracts for Columbia University, saying the Ivy League school hasn’t done enough to protect its Jewish students.

The announcement came from the Justice, Education and Health and Human Services departments and the General Services Administration.

“Universities must comply with all federal anti-discrimination laws if they are going to receive federal funding. For too long, Columbia has abandoned that obligation to Jewish students studying on its campus,” said Education Secretary Linda McMahon. “Today, we demonstrate to Columbia and other universities that we will not tolerate their appalling inaction any longer.”

Fridays’ decision comes four days after the administration’s task force notified Columbia University that it was facing a review.

The task force concluded that “chaos and antisemitic harassment” have plagued the university since anti-Israel protests broke out in the wake of the 2023 Hamas attack on the Jewish state.

Columbia, in a press statement Friday, said it would try to work with the feds to win back its funding.

“We take Columbia’s legal obligations seriously and understand how serious this announcement is and are committed to combating antisemitism and ensuring the safety and wellbeing of our students, faculty, and staff,” the school said.
