Denies and revokes student visas and nonimmigrant F/M status for noncitizens who engage in defined antisemitic conduct that the Secretary of State finds risks serious adverse foreign policy consequences. The bill adopts the Department of State’s use of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) working definition of antisemitism and treats violent acts or providing material support for such acts as prohibited conduct that triggers visa denial, cancellation, or revocation.
The law applies to applicants for and holders of F and M student visas, directing the Secretary of State to refuse or revoke visas when the specified conduct is found, and it amends the immigration statute to bar affected aliens from receiving or retaining F/M status.
