Harvard University has taken legal action against the Trump administration by filing a lawsuit in a Massachusetts federal court to challenge the freeze on more than $2.2 billion in federal funding. The prestigious university asserts that the funding freeze is illegal and goes beyond the government’s jurisdiction. Harvard argues that the administration’s actions are an infringement on academic autonomy, violating the First Amendment and various federal statutes. This move by Harvard University marks a significant escalation in the ongoing conflict between higher education institutions and the current administration. The outcome of this lawsuit could have far-reaching implications for the relationship between universities and the federal government in the United States.
