US suspends DV1 Green Card program

The United States is suspending the Green Card program due to the suspect in the Brown University shooting, US Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced.

“At the direction of President Trump, I am immediately directing U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS - RBC) to suspend the Diversity Visa I (DV1) program to ensure that Americans are no longer affected by this harmful program,” she wrote on her X social media page.

It should be noted that Claudio Manuel Neves Valente, who is accused of the Brown University shooting, entered the United States through the Diversity Immigrant Visa (DV1) program in 2017 and received a green card, Noem explained.
