Goldman denounces GOP bill on campus protests
Briefly

Goldman stated that the Accreditation for College Excellence Act of 2023 would "potentially strip public universities of their ability to control spontaneous protests or enforce reasonable 'time, place, and manner' restrictions on campus protests, which is the most basic method used by universities to stop antisemitic protests and encampments on campus." He emphasized that such control is essential for maintaining a safe environment for all students.
He criticized the Republican-led initiative stating, "After months of haranguing university presidents for failing to protect Jewish students on college campuses, Republicans are bringing to the floor a bill that will make it more difficult for universities to keep Jewish students safe." This highlights the irony and contradictions in their approach to campus safety.
Goldman urged Congress to support his "Showing Up for Students" Act, stating that it would appropriate funds for the Office for Civil Rights of the Department of Education, saying, "Congress can be part of the solution, not the problem." This act represents his push for meaningful legislative action to enhance campus safety.
