"ICE went into the database where foreign students are tracked & deleted the record of at least 1,700 or more people because they had some minor interaction with law enforcement — speeding tickets, fishing citations, & other minor things."

"Now up to over 1,700 students who've had visas revoked for nonsense reasons, including things like a citation for catching too much fish, or speeding tickets.

Above the fold👆
You know about the #H1BVisas which the US uses to allow educational staff, tech and corporate workers, into the country, right?

This author at naked capitalism say the reason those #H1B holders are being #deported now is to allow them back into the US labor pool on #H2A #Visas. The "#SlaveLabor/Indentured #Labor" visa used to bring in workers on terms that are as close to #HumanTrafficking as can be, but 'legal'. #H2AVisas #Deportation

A lawsuit filed in NH late Friday aims to present a sweeping legal challenge to the #Trump administration’s campaign targeting #international #students & #academics.

Lawyers asked a federal judge to certify a lawsuit brought by foreign students whose #visas were canceled as a class action.

The suit aims to to stop similar #detentions & #deportation efforts for students in NH, ME, MA, RI & Puerto Rico. It also asks the court to reinstate the student #visas that have been terminated.
