“It should be common ground that no student deserves to be threatened, mistreated, or silenced on campus due to their personal beliefs.”

Connor Ogrydziak outlines the censorship he and other conservatives experienced at the University of Buffalo.

[House Judiciary GOP 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 @JudiciaryGOP]

.@RepSpartz asked students if they believed free speech was protected on college campuses.

Every single one of them said no.

[House Judiciary GOP 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 @JudiciaryGOP]

Free speech on college campuses is under attack.

[Therese Purcell Wilkinson @therese_purcell]

Thanks Connor and @yaf for showing Congress how @UBuffalo treats conservatives. No student should be harassed, assaulted, or chased into a bathroom like I was afraid for my life over a difference in political view. Glad to see University at Buffalo exposed at a national level.

The crap they had to deal with at the University of Buffalo was amazing. Thank you to House Judiciary Committee Chairman @Jim_Jordan for holding these hearings. America needs to know what is happening on college campuses.

“When will the kids of Palestine wake up to the sound of birds not bombs”.

When Hamas stops using their bedrooms to fire rockets to kill Jews.

Scenes from my speech with @YAF_UB @yaf last night.

[Ian Haworth @ighaworth]

Heading to Buffalo with @yaf @YAF_UB to say:

If you’re pro-Hamas, you’re pro-genocide.

[Alliance Defending Freedom @ADFLegal]

A @yaf chapter is no longer recognized on campus after a recent policy change by the University at Buffalo. The University is effectively censoring the chapter's free speech.

ADF is helping them stand up for their constitutional rights.

[Michael Knowles @michaeljknowles]

Student groups, with the support of @ADFLegal, are suing both UBuffalo and the University of Pittsburgh, which have tried to silence campus organizations for inviting me to speak this semester. Hoping they take these leftist censors to the cleaners!

[WGRZ @WGRZ]

UB's Student Government recently changed the rules governing campus organizations, which led to YAF being kicked out. https://t.co/Qb9ynTNPPn
