The proposal would eliminate the U visa program, which currently allows certain crime victims who cooperate with law enforcement to obtain temporary legal status and work authorization in the United States. This change would affect immigrants who have been victims of serious crimes like human trafficking, domestic violence, or labor exploitation and have helped police investigate these crimes. Removing this program would eliminate a key tool that law enforcement agencies use to encourage victims to come forward and assist in criminal investigations.
