A Republican-led House committee says it would issue subpoenas to Columbia University to get documents it requested months ago for its investigation into reports of antisemitism on campus.
Speaker of the House Mike Johnson led a news conference with Republican committee chairs, including House Education and the Workforce Committee Chair Virginia Foxx, on April 30 to decry reports of antisemitism happening at university protests across the country.Columbia University could face subpoenas if it doesn’t comply with a U.S. House investigation into reports of rising antisemitism on college campuses.
"We want to understand how the Columbia administrators and Board of Trustee members responded to the events that unfolded on campus, and then what steps are they taking to hold all those responsible to account," she said.
Foxx said that new deadline will allow the committee to examine the documents provided by Columbia in order to have answers before students return to campus in the fall.
