George Washington University President Decries DC Police’s Refusal to Clear ‘Illegal’ Anti-Israel Encampment
The DC mayor has been invited to testify before Congress about the ongoing protest on campus.

The president of George Washington University says the District of Columbia’s metropolitan police are refusing to clear the “illegal and potentially dangerous” encampment on the campus green. The mayor of the nation’s capital, Muriel Bowser, has been invited to testify before Congress about her refusal to clear the protest.
University students set up an encampment on GW’s campus green on April 25, just over a week after the encampment at Columbia University sprang up. Students have for more than a week flown the Palestinian flag, pitched dozens of tents across the lawn, and vandalized the statue of President Washington at the heart of the university.
