These actions have sent chills through the community of noncitizen students and faculty on campuses around the country, causing some to pull out of academic conferences, stay home from <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/protests" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>protests</span></a>, and withdraw from other forms of public advocacy and engagement.</p><p>"The lawsuit alleges that the administration’s policy of ideological deportation violates the First Amendment right of the plaintiffs to hear from and associate with noncitizen students and faculty, that it is unconstitutionally vague, and that it violates the Administrative Procedure Act. The suit seeks a court order declaring that the policy is unlawful and enjoining the federal government from enforcing it."</p><p>Status: Complaint filed on March 25, 2025.</p><p>Case Information: American Association of University Professors v.
