The opening paragraphs of this case highlight the attack on legal immigration by the current administration. People who continue to "do things the right way" and "follow the law" are hampered in their journey by individuals like @USCISJoe and others in the administration.
@NPR just dropped a huge story exposing how USCIS cruel, unlawful adjudication pause is tearing lives apart, specifically highlighting the immense anxiety and limbo it's forcing on Iranian nationals who did everything right, followed every rule, maintained their lawful status but they are now just left stranded.
With nearly 20 federal court rulings already smashing this policy down and exposing top-level non-compliance, the pressure is at an all-time high.

At this point, every judge should assume DHS is lying unless it has evidence in hand. Lying is clearly officially sanctioned conduct under this admin. Judges need to impose more serious consequences. Why should they get to appear before them ever again?
@SenMarkKelly This administration is insane and doesn’t even know what’s doing to America! We can be the strongest country because we attract the best people in the world! “Make America Great Again” can’t happen without immigrants who contribute greatly to this country!
@NYCMayor@AOC@RepAOC@AOC Are you sure you’re a feminist? The hijab you wear is a symbol of oppression for millions of Iranian women. Under the Islamic laws women are treated as worth less than men yet you call it empowerment. It’s not “My Body, My Choice.” For you! It’s “My Body, My Benefit.”!
"My body, my choice." Except when a Muslim mayor says cover up. Then it's "my body for votes."
Since yesterday, when I criticized AOC, I have been under attack by her fellow feminists and colleagues calling me Islamophobic. Really? I have no fear of my beautiful mother, who wears her hijab traditionally without being a hypocrite.
I simply asked you, AOC: you represent New York, you said the hijab is fun, and that's why you wore it at an event where men and women are strictly segregated and you gave a speech with a smile saying "this is fun." So I asked: would you also attend a court hearing facing the fifth assassin hired by the Islamic regime, to condemn a terror attack on New York soil? And that makes me Islamophobic? Or does it make you a hypocrite, someone who just takes photos, collects likes, and calls it inspiration, but isn't comfortable condemning terror attacks carried out by Islamic ideology on New York soil?
Iranian women live under the constant fear of lashes, imprisonment, execution, and assassins who follow them even beyond their borders into exile. Phobia is an irrational fear but our fear of being killed is not irrational.
I simply asked you to condemn Islamic terror that creates a sphere of fear on New York soil as well. And now I'm waking up being bombarded by your team, attacking and bullying me.
The invitation still stands: Iranian women who were intentionally blinded by the Islamic Republic, simply for showing their hair and protesting came to New York courtroom last public trial, to condemn Islamic terror, So my question is clear ; will you come with Zohran Mamdani to a courtroom in August to witness yet another assassin sent to New York soil by the Islamic regime to Kew, a woman on US soil?
@AOC
@RandPaul But there are so many legal immigrants who are being affected by the new USCIS policies. Most of them earned their higher education degrees from top universities in the US and are living in stress and limbo instead of using this time contributing to the society and economy!
@kreighbaum@jolonso_ Taxpayer money helped fund these graduates’ education, and now, instead of contributing to society and using their talents, they are being forced to live in stress and uncertainty about their future. @POTUS@marcorubio@USCIS@DHSgov
@smartbuttryan@NicholasLissack@realDonaldTrump Didn’t he say “Help is on the way, we are LOCKED and LOADED” to the people of Iran?!?! Didn’t he call Obama’s deal a bad deal?!? But here we are at the negotiating table with the terrorist IRGC!! He just doesn’t know what he is doing, all he loves to see is to be praised!!
@RepScholten@realDonaldTrump He thrives on chaos. He creates it, feeds on it, and brings it into our lives every day. Our distraction is his victory otherwise, he’s just a loser.
@Jason He paused immigration processing for extraordinary Iranian applicants who followed every legal step and spent years studying at top universities just because they were born in Iran! How absurd!?!? #LifttheHold
Trump on Green Card:
Highly talented INT graduates should not be forced to leave America after earning U.S. degrees. Keeping skilled immigrants means more innovation, stronger healthcare, more jobs, & $ billion companies built in America, not overseas.
