Blocking F and J Visas for Chinese Communist Party Members and Families.

This bill aims to prevent members of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and their immediate family members from receiving F (student) and J (exchange) visas. This restriction means these individuals would be ineligible to enter the U.S. for educational or exchange programs. Exceptions are provided for compliance with UN agreements and a national security waiver granted by the President.
Key points
The ban applies to CCP members and their spouses, children, parents, siblings, grandchildren, nieces, and nephews.
Individuals covered by the ban will be ineligible for F (student) and J (exchange) visas to enter the United States.
The President can waive the application of this ban if it is certified to be in the national security interest of the United States.
