Judge rules against Rubio's visa ban
A federal judge has invalidated a Trump-era policy that suspended immigrant visas from 75 countries, ruling that the State Department lacked legal authority for the restrictions. The policy, which targeted nationals from countries deemed high risk, was found to violate statutory provisions and to unlawfully discriminate based on nationality. The ruling directs the government to revisit affected visa cases, dismantling the policy's nationality-based approach and restoring the role of consular officers in visa decisions.
