Rep. Virginia Foxx, R-N.C., told Newsmax Wednesday that antisemitism on college campuses is an “urgent” issue and that school presidents need to feel the pressure to counter it from many different sources.
“At Wake Forest they had a faculty member who made very intemperate comments, and my understanding is that she resigned over the weekend. The pressure needs to be coming from lots of different directions, including from Congress. And certainly plenty of pressure is coming from us and will continue to come from us.”
“This has been festering for a long time on the campuses, and it's broken out more after the Oct. 7 horrendous attacks by Hamas,” she said. “But these colleges and universities have been in a downward spiral for a long time. “We need these presidents to speak out forcefully and to do the right thing. Antisemitism cannot be tolerated anywhere in this country and particularly on campuses.”
