A report in The Harvard Crimson stated the two preeminent educational institutions submitted a lawsuit in District Court in Boston on July 8 morning versus the two federal agencies.
The suit looks for a temporary restraining order and initial and permanent injunctive relief to disallow the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement from the enforcing federal standards that will force international students to leave the U.S.
Harvard University President Lawrence Bacow stated in an e-mail to affiliates that the order came down without notice– its ruthlessness surpassed just by its recklessness. Our company believe that the ICE order is bad public law, and we believe that it is prohibited.
” We will pursue this case strongly so that our global students– and worldwide students at institutions throughout the nation– can continue their studies without the hazard of deportation,” Mr. Bacow stated, according to the Crimson report.
