The US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) has announced that immigrants seeking legal employment and citizenship will be screened for 'un-American' behavior. The new guidelines allow USCIS officers to decide on applicants' views, including support for anti-Semitic terrorism. This could discourage the expression of political views and slow down the processing of immigration applications, mirroring the Trump administration's efforts to restrict immigration.
