"I don't know how much legs the AEI proposal has, but we live in a moment when the Trump campaign and red state legislatures are looking for ways to shut up campus voices. So we should take it seriously, if you are an academic, or just someone worried about the silencing of dissent in American life."

    "If you are on the side of telling people to shut up, or encouraging government to use its power to shut them up, maybe its time to question your commitment to free speech and democracy. But AEI has embraced tactics of democratic backsliding when it comes to higher education. At the same time that it is advocating to shut down the ability of professional associations to engage in political speech, AEI is also outlining how Trump can fire educational accreditors. This would pave the way for more politicization of the curriculum, removing one more professional protection for the academic freedom to learn and to teach. The consistent through-line in AEI’s logic is not that politics and academia should not mix, but that political actors, and not scholars, should determine what scholars are allowed to say."
