Congressman Rudy Yakym spoke out against the rise of antisemitism on college campuses on Friday.
At a House Education and Workforce Committee Member Day Hearing, he spoke out in the wake of Hamas’ terrorist attack against Israel.
Yakym spoke about the initiative he is leading to press college Diversity, Equity and Inclusion officials on their responses to antisemitism on their campuses.
Yakym stated that while some leaders have stepped up with forceful words and actions, too many leaders have not. He looks to hold them accountable for allowing antisemitism to spread.

Nice speech Rudy. The question is what are you going to do about enforcing the 1st Amendment? You can;e even do that on your house web site. You limit comments to 2000 characters. that’s not words that;’s characters.. Letters, punctuation, and spaces. What kind of horse s**t is that? You have a constitutional duty to receive redress of grievances from US Citizens, all 500,000 of you pretend to represent. Your predecessor did not limit what could be sent to her. Neither US Senators for Indiana do that either. Why do you do it?
Of course this is a fruitless message because you never even see the messages. You staff sees them and when a constituent selects a subject of the message they are automatically selecting the response from your office.
