MLFA Protecting International Student Rights: Navigating Student Protests and Immigration Risks

In this video, Katherine Brady, the Immigration Litigation Department head at MLFA, discuss important rights for international scholars and students navigating free speech, social media, and campus protests in the US. While the First Amendment protects your right to protest, it’s essential to understand the limitations and rules set by your school, whether public or private. As an international student, your risks are higher, as expulsion or conviction may impact your visa status and future immigration benefits. Always be truthful with law enforcement and immigration authorities, and seek legal advice if needed. MLFA’s Immigration Department offers general advice on free speech, social media, and protests, as well as insight into immigration risks. If you have specific questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to us or other MLFA departments for assistance MLFA.ORG. MLFA does this work pro bono. We’re here to help you navigate these challenges and protect your rights.
