A coalition of tech experts on Monday sued US President Donald Trump’s administration over a policy resulting in visa denials, detention or deportation for researchers and fact-checkers reporting on social media platforms.
The nonpartisan Coalition for Independent Technology Research (CITR) filed the lawsuit in a federal court in the US capital, naming Secretary of State Marco Rubio, outgoing Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Attorney General Pam Bondi as defendants.
