US Congressmen & Senators Demands Reversal on International Student Policy

US Congressmen & Senators Demands Reversal on International Student Policy
Group of 136 US Democratic congressmen and 30 senators, including Indian-origin Kamala Harris, has urged the Trump administration to reverse its “cruel” order that bars international students from staying in the country if they do not have in-person classes to attend.
The new guidelines have created panic among international students, a majority of whom come from China and India.
In its July 6 order, the ICE declared that nonimmigrant F-1 and M-1 students attending schools operating entirely online or taking only online courses will not be permitted to take a full course load and remain in the United States.
In the 2018-2019 academic year, there were over a million international students in the US.
