This policy was changed by the Trump administration, resulting in BSF grant money being transferred to Israeli settlements at the OPT.

Academia for Equality sent a letter (see link below) to the Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, asking to act swiftly and resolutely to reverse this disastrous legacy set in place during the last days of the Trump administration, undermining peace in our land.
