According to reports from several US media outlets, the Trump administration on the 27th sent a letter to all federal agencies, requesting the termination of all remaining federal contracts with Harvard University, totaling approximately $100 million. The New York Times cited anonymous government officials as saying that the letter was issued by the General Services Administration and was delivered to various federal agencies on the same day. The report stated that this letter is the latest move by the Trump administration to weaken Harvard University's financial situation and global influence in order to suppress the most influential university in American culture. NBC News reported, based on a copy of the letter they obtained, that the document requested all federal agencies to submit a list of terminated contracts with Harvard University to the General Services Administration by June 6th.
