One thing that is really stupid about this bill is: "...and the issuance of all nonimmigrant visas".
This includes, among other, F1 visas!!!
No more international students or researchers?? Puhleaaaze .... this country can't live and survive without them! International students are always a major/good source of income, because they always pay out-of-state tuition, which translates to BILLIONS of dollars.
If the universites lost a huge amount of money due to this bill, they would simply increase the tuition fees for domestic students!
