#USCISpause has been ruled unlawful but @DHSgov wants to keep countless people in limbo w/ a stay of the order to vacate their illegal policies. Who does this serve?! #LiftTheHold
A federal court vacated the USCIS pause policies and ordered compliance. Yet even a week later, USCIS was still reporting that implementation efforts were ongoing.
For those affected, this is more than an administrative matter. These are students awaiting graduation, researchers trying to continue their work, physicians ready to serve patients, engineers supporting critical projects, and families seeking certainty about their future.
The court has spoken. Now affected applicants are looking for clear guidance and timely implementation.
Respect for the rule of law includes both judicial review and prompt compliance with court orders.
