The U.S. House of Representatives passed a bipartisan resolution Wednesday calling for the resignation of Harvard President Claudine Gay in light of her controversial congressional testimony on campus antisemitism last week.
The measure, which was adopted in a 303-126 vote, also requests the resignation of MIT President Sally A. Kornbluth, who testified at last week’s hearing alongside Gay and University of Pennsylvania President Elizabeth Magill.
A Harvard spokesperson declined to comment on the passage of the House resolution.
