The US House Committee on Education and the Workforce is questioning the presidents of the City University of New York, Georgetown University, and the University of California, Berkeley.

As members of Congress question the university presidents about antisemitism on campuses, protesters interrupt the hearings at least four times. As CUNY president Félix V. Matos Rodríguez speaks, a protester shouts, “Blood on your hands,” and, “You are a genocidal war criminal.”

While Rich Lyons, the chancellor of the University of California, Berkeley, speaks, an activist shouts, “You’re complicit in the genocide of Palestinians.” In another outburst, a protester shouts, “Israel is burning children alive.”

The activists are quickly ejected from the hearing. Rep. Randy Fine, a Republican from Florida, tells the protester, “Get out of here, you loser.” “I hold you all responsible for this,” Fine tells the university leaders. “It is that attitude that you have allowed on your campuses that makes people think this is ok.”
