According to a report published by Forbes, the Biden administration is facing a lawsuit over coronavirus-related US visa restrictions. The lawsuit is reportedly challenging the US State Department’s refusal to issue US visas in countries where the Biden administration maintains COVID-related restrictions on entering the US.
Filed by the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA), the lawsuit claims that the restrictions are not advancing public health, since any person granted a US visa must show a negative COVID-19 test prior to flying to the United States and can quarantine.
The lawsuit adds that people in some US visa categories, and individuals with valid visas previously issued, are permitted to enter the US while people across other categories are refused.
