US Federal Judge Rules Deporting Pro-Palestinian Activists Over Speech Unconstitutional
A federal judge in California has ruled that the Trump administration's use of immigration laws to revoke visas and initiate deportation proceedings against foreign students for pro-Palestinian activism and criticism of Israel is unconstitutional.

This ruling came in response to a lawsuit filed by the Stanford University student newspaper, which argued that visa-holding students refrained from covering pro-Palestinian protests out of fear for their immigration status.
