After the Brown University shooting, the US pauses a little-known diversity visa program

Following a shooting linked to Brown University and MIT, the Trump administration paused the diversity immigrant visa program. This congressionally created lottery offers up to 50,000 green cards annually to applicants from countries with low immigration rates. Critics argue this move uses an isolated act of violence to justify broad restrictions on legal immigration channels.
