The US State Department is reviewing over 55m visas for potential violations that could lead to revocation or deportation. Secretary of State Marco Rubio also announced an immediate pause on worker visas for commercial truck drivers, citing risks to public safety and American livelihoods, according to Al Jazeera.

All visa holders face continuous vetting for overstays, criminal activity, or support for terrorism. Since taking office, President Donald Trump has intensified immigration enforcement, including workplace raids, restrictions on humanitarian programs, and revocation of student visas—some linked to protests or protected speech.
