Fox News: International students sue over Trump admin revoking visas
International students are suing the Trump administration for allegedly violating their due process rights after their visas were revoked. The administration claims the cancellations are justified due to the students' pro-Palestinian activism, which it associates with support for Hamas.
The lawsuits highlight concerns over the use of a 1952 foreign policy statute to justify visa revocations, affecting students across at least 30 states. While some students maintain legal residency despite visa cancellations, the loss of visa status can lead to deportation risks.
