California's lawsuit against the Trump administration argues its new visa rules could worsen the spread of COVID-19 by requiring international students to attend courses in person.

by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement is also seen as harmful to California Community Colleges, at which some 21,000 international students are enrolled, according to Chancellor Eloy Ortiz Oakley.

“In addition to being cruel, Defendants’ attempt at a policy change to force in-person learning in the middle of a pandemic is absurd and the essence of arbitrary and capricious conduct in violation of the Administrative Procedure Act,” the lawsuit says.The University of California is separately planning to go to court to seek a temporary restraining order to bar enforcement of the new federal policy on grounds it violates the rights of the university and its students.

The new federal rules for the Student and Exchange Visitor Program bar nonimmigrant students who take a full course load online from remaining in the U.S. and block the return of those who left the country during the coronavirus outbreak.International students who wish to stay in the U.S. would have to enroll at a university providing in-person classes or a hybrid program of online and in-person courses.

Californian students can’t get into these schools who’s parents have been paying taxes on for hundreds of years. Don’t care that these kids are taking up spots for California’s children

Of course- California gets almost as much from Chinese students as they do from gas tax

They’ll lose as they should.

Using taxpayer dollars to defend foreign students?

Shouldn't American students be the priority? Our American kids need jobs.

Really? Have your propagandists, opiners trying to work as journos looked at how many foreign students are taking the place of Californians at the UC system and the golden eggs those foreign students lay?

This policy has been in place long before Trump. It is set up this way to ensure no 'diploma mills'. Where the student is not physically on campus. They could be working in another state while doing online college. Getting around immigration laws and work visas.

that literally doesnt work Trump: 'I AM THE SENATE!'

California wants more communists.
