USCISNews: In a significant move, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced that it will now be screening the social media activity of aliens applying for immigration benefits, focusing specifically on antisemitic content and harassment. This new policy is a direct response to President Trump’s executive orders aimed at combating antisemitism and protecting the U.S. from individuals who may pose a threat due to extremist or violent ideologies.
