- The Trump administration has frozen over $300 million in research funds for the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).
- This action is reportedly due to claims of antisemitism and bias at the institution.
- The freeze includes approximately $240 million in research grants from the Health and Human Services Department and the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and $81 million from the National Science Foundation (NSF).
- UCLA Chancellor Julio Frenk stated that the federal government is cutting hundreds of grants to the university.
- The funding cut is an early test for Chancellor Frenk and James B. Milliken, the new leader of the University of California system.
