Harvard sues Trump admin over $2.2B funding freeze, citing unlawful control over academic decisions.

Harvard University has taken legal action against the Trump administration by filing a lawsuit challenging the freeze on more than $2.2 billion in federal funding. The prestigious university asserts that the government’s decision to halt the funding is not only unlawful but also an overreach of its authority. The lawsuit, lodged in a federal court in Massachusetts, alleges that the administration’s actions are an infringement on academic autonomy and a violation of the First Amendment and other federal statutes. Harvard’s legal challenge marks a significant development in the ongoing battle between educational institutions and the government over control and funding issues.
