Image May 30, 2025 Press Release WASHINGTON, DC — Today, Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL) issued the following statement on the Trump administration's decision to revoke Harvard's Student and Exchange Visitor Program certification, which allows the university to admit international students. "This aggressive visa revocation policy of Chinese students comes right after they were used to initiate a lawsuit ending affirmative action for all Americans. The strategy of divide-and-conquer is being used to exploit our differences, making it easier to undermine our collective progress. “If we don't stand together, we risk being pitted against one another. “We must recognize that our struggles are interconnected. Regardless of our backgrounds, we need to unite to defend our rights and ensure equal opportunities for everyone to succeed in this country.” ###
