Larsen Makes Statement on Trump Revoking Visas for Chinese Students

Today, Representative Rick Larsen released the following statement: “The Trump administration’s plan to revoke visas for Chinese students is xenophobic and weakens U.S. national security. This policy will force promising young people to study elsewhere, diminishing American global leadership and causing long-term economic harm. If this Administration is serious about competing with China, American higher education needs to attract the world’s best students, not turn them away because of where they were born.” ###
