The Pasteur Institute (Institut Pasteur) in Tehran, one of the oldest and most prominent medical research facilities in Iran, was reportedly struck during recent U.S.–Israeli airstrikes. The Islamic Republic has long faced accusations of constructing missile silos and other military infrastructure beneath civilian and public buildings, a practice that has drawn international concern for the safety of noncombatant sites and the potential escalation of regional conflict.

Mr. @SecMullinDHS, as you step into your new position I ask you to provide particular consideration to the status of Iranian students and professionals in the United States who may be at risk of immigration complications due to Presidential Proclamations 10949 and 10998. Many of these individuals fled the Islamic Republic’s because they believe in freedom, democracy, and the values this country stands for. They are also contributing to the United States every day. They arrived in this country legally, followed the rules, respect this country and its system of law and order and are among the most dedicated and accomplished contributors to American society. I ask that you and your department consider these factors, plus the personal and political risk many of these young people would face if sent back to the criminal regime in Iran. America’s concerns for its national security and the threat posed by the Islamic regime to the homeland are entirely justified. To that end, my office stands ready to provide you and your colleagues with regime operatives, propaganda agents, and influence networks for investigation and removal from the United States. Thank you for your consideration.
