Trump administration says it is freezing billions in grant funding to Harvard

  • On Monday, the Trump administration announced it will freeze all new federal research grants to Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, until further notice.
  • The administration cited Harvard’s repeated violations of legal duties related to antisemitism, political bias, and management practices as reasons for the funding freeze.
  • Linda McMahon, the Education Secretary, notified Harvard's president that federal research funding would be suspended unless the university implements reforms related to admissions, diversity initiatives, and protest policies.
  • The administration has suspended $2.2 billion in federal multi-year research funding and announced that Harvard will not be awarded any additional federal grants until it proves effective oversight and management of the institution.
  • Harvard denounced the action as illegal government overreach and sued last month to halt the freeze, while negotiations with the government continue amid ongoing federal investigations.
