International students continue to challenge Trump admin

OAKLAND, Calif. — A federal court in California declined to dismiss international students’ lawsuit challenging the Trump administration’s efforts to arrest or deport international students whose immigration records were deleted by federal officials in April. Students on F-1 visas had their SEVIS records terminated in service of the government’s Student Criminal Alien Initiative and ICE ran their names through the National Crime Information Center database. Their lawsuit properly challenges the policy under the Administrative Procedures Act.
