Protect International Education
Ask your Lawmakers to Restore, Grow, and Diversify U.S. Study Abroad Participation
The COVID pandemic has dramatically impacted study abroad, limiting students’ access to the associated benefits and resulting in significant financial losses for institutions. Urge your lawmakers' support for the Senator Paul Simon Study Abroad Program Act and for new and increased federal funding for study abroad, to ensure today's students gain the global skills, knowledge, and experiences necessary to compete in today’s global workforce.
Ask your Lawmakers to Help the U.S. Attract Global Talent
Voice your support for policies that would remove barriers to international students and scholars studying, working, and living in the U.S., such as giving student graduates a direct path to a green card, expanding dual intent, and transparent, clear, and timely processing of new visas and renewals by the U.S. Department of State.
