U.S. students and #highered need Congress to pass the #SimonBill to expand access to #studyabroad and @StateDept to make more nuanced assessments of travel risk. @CoryBooker @SenatorMenendez @RepDonaldPayne , add your voice to make that happen! https://t.co/EOROcX9P3r

#intlstudents spur jobs, enrich our communities, and are ambassadors of American ideals: the exchange of ideas, critical inquiry & freedom of expression. @CoryBooker @SenatorMenendez @RepDonaldPayne, please support policies to say #YouAreWelcomeHere. https://t.co/88J23QHfaM
