Bill > HR2273

This bill, known as the UPRISERS Act (UProot Rioting International Students Engaged in Radical Subversion Act), requires the Secretary of State to revoke the visas of international students (those on F, J, or M visas) who are convicted of assaulting a police officer or participating in riot-related offenses. Specifically, the bill defines riot-related offenses broadly, including inciting a riot, organizing or promoting a riot, participating in a riot, committing violence during a riot, or aiding and abetting riot-related activities. Additionally, the bill amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to make such students deportable if they are convicted of these offenses. This legislation targets international students who engage in what the bill considers disruptive or violent behavior, providing a mechanism to remove them from the United States through visa revocation and potential deportation. The bill appears to be a response to concerns about potential student involvement in civil unrest or violent protests.
