In addition to this EO, the White House also issued a Fact Sheet related to the EO on January 30, 2025. The order reaffirms an earlier order issued in 2019 and sets forth additional measures focused on university and college campuses. In several recent enforcement actions that stemmed from this EO, the government cited INA 237(a)(4)(C)/8 USC 1227(a)(4)(C) as the basis for these enforcement actions. That provision provides that: “An alien whose presence or activities in the United States the Secretary of State has reasonable ground to believe would have potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences for the United States is deportable.”
