House Republicans have introduced a bill that would revoke the visas of students arrested at pro-Palestinian demonstrations on US college campuses.
Republican Congressman Andy Ogles introduced legislation on Wednesday that would revoke the F, J, or M student visas of students arrested at college protests, including those arrested at encampments built in support of besieged Palestinians in Gaza.
“We do not need Hamas sympathizers on American soil breaking our laws and influencing our youth to hate America and freedom,” Republican Jeff Duncan, who co-signed the bill, said on X.
"You riot on behalf of a terrorist organization, then say goodbye to your visa."
