US court blocks deportation of Israel critics

A U.S. federal judge ruled that former President Donald Trump's 2025 decision to revoke visas from non-American students and deport them due to their support for Palestinians and criticism of Israel was unconstitutional. Judge Noel Weiss affirmed that using immigration laws to target foreigners based on their opinions violates the free speech protections guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution. She expressed concern that these measures have led to a rollback of free expression and have constrained the community of foreigners and students. The judge pointed out that the threat of deportation based on one's opinions reflects the dangers of government retaliation. This ruling is considered a victory for Stanford University students who feared arrest or deportation for expressing their views, as the policy infringed upon their constitutional rights. This decision comes nearly a year after a prior court ruling in Boston, which upheld that the Trump administration violated the Constitution by targeting non-citizens simply for their support of Palestinians.
