Groups sue Trump admin over visa time restrictions for foreign students and journalists nationwide
Groups file lawsuit against Trump admin over visa time restrictions for foreign students and journalists, claiming they violate laws and international agreements.
A group of unions and advocacy groups have filed a lawsuit against the Trump administration over new visa restrictions on foreign students and journalists, claiming they would limit their ability to work in the US without restricting legitimate immigration processes. The lawsuit aims to block enforcement of these time restrictions, which were introduced as part of a policy change that limited F-1 student visas to 24 months from an approved practical training program or 36 months if it includes optional practical training. The new rules affect certain categories of students and journalists, including those in the US on J-1 visas for cultural exchange programs. The lawsuit seeks to nullify these restrictions before they take effect.
