U.S. Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem said she was suspending the diversity visa program at President Donald Trump’s direction, saying the man suspected of killing two students at Brown University and a MIT professor had been granted one.
Noem posted on X late Thursday that she had instructed the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services to pause the (DV1) program “to ensure no more Americans are harmed by this disastrous program.”
On Dec. 13, two students died and nine others were injured when someone opened fire at the physics building at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island. Police later identified Portuguese national Claudio Manuel Neves Valente, 48, as the suspect.

Noem said that Valente entered the U.S. through the DV1 program in 2017 and was granted a green card.
