State Department plans visa revocations

NBC News  - The State Department is expected to announce in the coming weeks the revocation of business and tourism visas issued between 2016 and 2026 whose holders have sought asylum or are now seeking asylum, according to State Department documents obtained by the Associated Press and two U.S. officials. The move to revoke so-called B1 visas — which are generally used for business trips — and B2 visas — are generally issued for tourism, family visits or medical care — could affect up to 200,000 foreigners and would be the largest single mass revocation of visas in U.S. history.  The revocations would not necessarily result in the holders’ immediate deportation, and it would likely face legal challenges.  MORE
