Amen!
America cannot long remain free, nor first among nations, if it becomes the kind of place where universities are dismantled because they don't align politically with the current head of the government.

💔 Our hearts are broken. Sarah Milgrim and Yaron Lischinsky — two young Israeli embassy staffers and cherished members of the AJC community — were murdered while leaving an AJC event in Washington, D.C., last night. They were stolen from us. They had their entire lives ahead of them. Sarah, an American from Overland Park, Kansas, was warm and compassionate, committed to peacebuilding, and passionate about sustainability and people-to-people relations. Yaron always had a smile on his face and a welcoming presence. He had reportedly bought a ring and was planning to ask Sarah to marry him in Jerusalem next week. Words cannot adequately express our sorrow. We mourn with Sarah and Yaron’s families, their friends, and all who loved them. May their memories be a blessing.

I am deeply disappointed by the Florida Legislature’s vote to ban fluoride from tap water, a decision that disregards the guidance of dentists, doctors, and medical experts. Ending fluoridation will have long-lasting impact on health—especially for our most vulnerable families.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions – rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking concrete steps to make sure all students at Harvard can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope other institutions follow suit.
“No government—regardless of which party is in power—should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue.” - President Alan Garber hrvd.me/GarberRespond347t

JUST IN: Judge Amy Berman Jackson — who sat in the courtroom during Trump's arraignment in Washington — becomes the latest federal judge to speak out on Jan. 6 pardons. "Patriotism is loyalty to country and loyalty to the Constitution – not loyalty to a single head of state."

1/ We unequivocally condemn Pres. Trump's issuance of 1,500 pardons and commuted sentences for Jan 6 insurrectionists, including leaders & members of extremist groups. This decision undermines accountability & risks reinvigorating violent extremists and other insurrectionists. 🧵
