A recent report showed 70% of enforcement actions that were put forth by the Biden administration’s Education Department were imposed on religious universities.
The report was published by the American Principles Project.
APP Policy Director Jon Schweppe said that department has been “busy weaponizing every part of the federal government to target their opponents” over the past four years, according to Fox News.
The department argues the group is pushing a false narrative.
“Our top priority is protecting safety and academic opportunity for all students at institutions of higher education,” a spokesperson told Fox News Digital. “The data in the APP report itself pushes a false narrative by distorting information released publicly by the Department.”
The report stated that Liberty University and Grand Canyon University had a lot of enforcement action.
The report showed that the two religious schools got more fines than “all penalties imposed over the past seven years combined,” including fines that were imposed on Michigan State University and Penn State.
“The average fine against a Christian school for a Clery Act violation was $815,000, compared to $228,571 against public and private institutions,” the report stated.
