Arizona Democratic Sen. Ruben Gallego is launching an effort to challenge a new Trump Administration immigration policy that could require many green card applicants to leave the United States and complete the process abroad.
According to a report from The Hill, Gallego is not only seeking to overturn the policy itself but is also pursuing a procedural strategy that could make it easier for Congress to reverse the change.
The dispute revolves around a recent U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) policy affecting how certain immigrants obtain lawful permanent residency.

Senator Tom Cotton (R-Arkansas) introduced the No Bailouts for Campus Criminals Act, which he describes as “legislation preventing any pro-Hamas protestor on college campuses convicted of a crime from having their student loans forgiven.”
“The bill comes after widespread, anti-Semitic protests continue to spread on college campuses across the United States,” Cotton notes in a statement. The bill would “make any individual who is convicted of a state or federal offense in connection with a campus protest ineligible for any federal student loan relief.
“Americans who never went to college or responsibly paid off their debts shouldn’t have to pay off other people’s student loans. They especially shouldn’t have to pay off the loans of Hamas sympathizers shutting down and defacing campuses,” said Senator Cotton.
“Violent campus protestors laughably demand respect, amnesty, and even takeout food. Our bicameral bill ensures that not one student protestor convicted of criminal offenses is bailed out by student loan forgiveness. Not one dime of taxpayer money will fund these criminals,” said Congressman Brandon Williams (New York-22,) who is leading companion legislation in the House.
“Students who have been convicted of a crime for engaging in the vicious riots on college campuses across the country should be held accountable for their actions. It’s innately un-American for taxpayers to be paying off their federal student loan debts when they have caused chaos and committed crimes on college campuses because they support Hamas terrorists,” said Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX,) a co-sponsor of the Senate bill.
In addition to Cruz, Senators Marsha Blackburn (R-Tennessee), Katie Britt (R-Alabama), Mike Crapo (R-Idaho), Steve Daines (R-Montana), Deb Fischer (R-Nebraska), Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina), Josh Hawley (R-Missouri), Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-Mississippi), Roger Marshall (R-Kansas), James Risch (R-Idaho), Mitt Romney (R-Utah), Marco Rubio (R-Florida), Tim Scott (R-South Carolina), Thom Tillis (R-North Carolina), Tommy Tuberville (R-Alabama), J.D. Vance (R-Ohio), and Roger Wicker (R-Mississippi) are co-sponsoring the Senate legislation.
