The U.S. State Department says more than 175,000 visas held by foreign nationals have been revoked under the Trump administration as immigration and visa enforcement intensifies.

According to the State Department, many of the revocations followed law enforcement encounters involving offenses including assault, DUI, theft, and drug-related crimes. Other cases involved fraud, visa violations, and national security concerns.

The administration has also increased scrutiny of what it calls “birth tourism,” along with broader screening and vetting of visa holders.
