The Trump administration has suspended over half a billion dollars in federal grant money to the University of California, Los Angeles. The decision to halt the distribution of federal grants worth $584 million comes in response to an investigation of UCLA by the Justice Department.

Last month, UCLA announced it had settled a lawsuit over campus antisemitism claims in part by donating over $2 million to campus and community Jewish organizations. The school, like many universities engaged by Trump, reformed campus discipline and anti-hate training in the wake of the 2024 protests.

The announcement came as UCLA reached a $6 million settlement with three Jewish students and a Jewish professor who sued the university, arguing it violated their civil rights by allowing pro-Palestinian protesters in 2024 to block their access to classes and other areas on campus.
