DHS Pauses Visa Program After Shooting
Update: 2025-12-19
Description
Department of Homeland Security Pauses Visa Program Following Brown University ShootingThe Department of Homeland Security has temporarily halted the DV One visa program, which allows individuals from countries with low immigration rates to enter the US. This decision comes after the suspect in the recent Brown University shooting, Claudio Manuel Neves Valente, was identified as a green card holder who entered the country through this program. Valente, a forty-eight-year-old Portuguese national, was accused of killing a Brown University student and a Massachusetts Institute of Technology professor. The diversity visa program, managed by the State Department, randomly selects up to fifty-five thousand immigrants each year. This move is part of the Trump administrations broader effort to tighten US immigration policies after several domestic incidents.
