On Friday, December 1, 2017, a federal judge in the District of Columbia ordered the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to rescind its delay of a rule that allows some foreign entrepreneurs to stay in the United States to grow their companies.
Judge ruled in favor of a lawsuit filed by a U.S. venture capitalist group in September challenging a delay by DHS of the International Entrepreneur Rule.
The Startup Parole or International Entrepreneur Rule, passed by the administration of President Barack Obama in January 2017, would allow some foreign startup founders to stay in the United States for up to five years to develop their businesses.
Instead, in July 2017, just before the rule should have become effective, current White House administration delayed the implementation to March 2018, and even said it was “highly likely” to rescind the rule.
Judge agreed that the government’s actions violated the Administrative Procedure Act, which requires advance notice of new rules.
