House Of Reps Begin Trump’s Impeachment Process

President Donald Trump administration has been sued Harvard and MIT to stop it from stripping foreign students of visas if their universities move classes online amid the pandemic.

A report monitored on thehill.com by Naija News says the two Ivy League universities asked a federal court in Boston for a temporary restraining order and permanent injunction against the administration’s plan.

The Trump administration has warned that it will revoke the visas of students whose courses move entirely online.

Foreign students contribute at least $45 billion into the U.S. economy with the majority of the students coming from China, and India.

Meanwhile, after the decision by Harvard and MIT, there are indications that many other universities will sue the administration.
