No Visas for Anti-Semitic Students Act

HR 7232, the "No Visas for Anti-Semitic Students Act," revokes student visas (F or M status) for international students who are or were members of antisemitic organizations or made public antisemitic statements. It directly affects non-U.S. students holding valid F- or M- visas who engage in such activities, requiring the Secretary of State to revoke their visas upon the bill's enactment. The bill defines antisemitism broadly as hatred toward Jews expressed through rhetoric or physical acts targeting Jewish individuals, property, community institutions, or religious facilities. It also prohibits granting new student visas to applicants with such affiliations or statements. The law amends existing immigration rules to void visas if students later engage in antisemitic conduct while holding F- or M-status.
