Judge jeffrey WhiteA district judge ruled Thursday the federal government could not revoke the legal status of international students after a nationwide crackdown on foreign individuals at U.S. universities.

The case involves two dozen students who were admitted to the U.S. on F-1 nonimmigrant visas who saw their status changed when the federal government took them off the Student and Exchange Visitor Information System (SEVIS).

Along with blocking terminations, District Judge Jeffrey White, who was appointed by former President George W. Bush, is enjoining the federal government from arresting the plaintiffs or those similarly situated or transferring those arrested outside of their resident jurisdiction.

The Hill has reached out to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) for comment.

This is the first time a judge has issued a nationwide injunction after dozens of lawsuits appeared in response to the federal government’s crackdown on international students.
