New York Republican Rep. Elise Stefanik sparred with the president of Northwestern University, Michael Schill, over his school earning an "F grade" for its handling of antisemitism, as well as whistleblowers’ claims regarding Schill allegedly looking to hire an anti-Zionist rabbi for the school.
"Isn't it true that you asked the Hillel director whether it was possible to hire an anti-Zionist" rabbi for the campus’ Jewish community? Stefanik asked Schill.
"I did not. I absolutely did not. I would never hire anyone based upon their views of being Zionist or anti-Zionist. That is not what I do," Schill responded.
"That's not according to the whistleblowers that have come forward to this committee," Stefanik shot back. "… I can assure you many people have [spoken] to this committee."
