Judge again blocks Trump administration from halting Harvard's enrolling international students

A federal judge in Massachusetts on Friday further blocked the Trump administration's attempt to revoke Harvard University’s ability to enroll international students while giving those students additional legal protections.

U.S. District Judge Allison D. Burroughs issued the preliminary injunction after having granted a temporary restraining order against the federal government this month.

The injunction holds that the administration is blocked from yanking Harvard's Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification, which was based on a May 22 revocation notice the Department of Homeland Security sent to Harvard administrators.

In her decision, Burroughs directed the government to “immediately” prepare guidance to alert Trump administration officials to disregard that notice and to restore “every visa holder and applicant to the position that individual would have been absent such Revocation Notice.”

It also says the student visa holders should not be denied entry to the country as a result of the revocation.

The government must "file a status report within 72 hours of entry of this Order describing the steps taken to ensure compliance with this Order and certifying compliance with its requirements," Burroughs wrote.

Preliminary injunctions can be appealed, which the Justice Department is likely to do.

The Justice Department and DHS did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

This judge understands that SEVP is a govt run program, right? Normally this would be a rhetorical question but these days...

Amazing list. Thanks.

It would be grand if congress could put a stop to this. But they don’t have a dog in this fight. It’s just Trump and eighty million voters. So, no one of consequence.

thanks. while i haven’t had time to study your entire list, it does include many that appear to be treasonous criminals requiring prompt arrest, trial, and hopefully life imprisonment
(or capital punishment)
so they can’t just keep attacking USA from their privileged vantages inside our country. Guantanamo or Death? Depending on the convictions of course

She was born in Boston, that’s why she’s an idiot. Didn’t go to Harvard. Went to Middlebury College in Vermont and University of Pennsylvania. Appointed by Obama. Taking care of his alma mater.

You're probably right. I'd like to see his test results for the Bar Exam, but we've never even seen any of his school transcripts have we?
