Harvard Seeks Speedy Resolution of Suit Over Trump Funding Cuts

Harvard University told a federal judge it’s eager to move quickly with its legal challenge to more than $2 billion in funding cuts by the Trump administration.

In a request for a scheduling conference filed late Wednesday, the university said it doesn’t plan to ask for a temporary order blocking the government’s actions, but will instead “expeditiously” pursue a final judgment on its central claim that the administration violated federal regulations for cutting funding.
