Indianapolis, IN — Democratic Whip Katherine Clark issued the following statement after Donald Trump declared he would revoke Harvard University’s tax-exempt status:
 
“Trump is weaponizing the federal government against anyone who doesn’t bow down to him — universities, news outlets, charitable organizations, law firms, museums, and even private citizens. Every day, Trump shows us that he cares more about attacking the American people than fighting to improve their lives. 
 
“Revoking Harvard’s tax-exempt status will have profound consequences far beyond its faculty and students. Harvard is a global leader in scientific research that produces cures and hope for patients and drives our innovation economy.
 
“President Trump can’t change a fundamental truth: There are no kings in this country. This illegal action will not stand.”
