Trump DOJ Asks to Dismiss Harvard Suit Over Foreign Students
The Trump administration has requested a federal judge to dismiss Harvard University's lawsuit challenging a proposed ban on international students. The administration argues that the president has extensive authority to impose rules restricting the entry of non-citizens into the United States. The lawsuit was filed in response to a policy announced by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) that would have required international students to leave the country or transfer to another institution if their classes were moved entirely online due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Harvard and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) had filed the lawsuit in an effort to block the implementation of this policy. The Trump administration's request to dismiss the lawsuit is the latest development in the ongoing legal battle over the proposed restrictions on international students.
