Submit a Comment to DHS in Support of International Scholars

UAW members are mobilizing against a burdensome new rule, the latest in a sequence of xenophobic directives coming from the Trump administration. Recently, the Department of Homeland Security published a rule that shortens the length of time international students and scholars on F and J visas may remain in the U.S. before applying for a visa renewal, and imposes restrictions on graduate students seeking to change programs. These rules are designed to add layers of bureaucracy to an already daunting and complicated process, and would discourage international students and scholars from coming to the U.S.
Take a few minutes to submit a public comment—tell DHS how this harmful rule change will harm your teaching and research and hurt higher education in the U.S.
