The State Department announced a “significant expansion” of its visa restriction policy to target “those working on behalf of U.S. adversaries to undermine” the country’s interests in the Western Hemisphere.
The department also said it has already “taken steps” to impose restrictions on 26 individuals as part of the expansion. A list of the individuals’ identities and their specific activities that warranted the visa restriction has not been made public. The policy will generally render the individuals and their family members ineligible for entry into the country.
