**Deny or revoke visas for students who engage in prohibited antisemitic conduct.** This bill would direct the Secretary of State to deny or revoke F and M visas when a student commits or knowingly supports certain antisemitic violence, vandalism, or harassment and is determined to pose potentially serious adverse foreign policy consequences.
