A post shared Tuesday by Riley Gaines revealed that USCIS is demanding her husband receive the “COVID-19 vaccine series” in order to receive his green card.
“Just got another letter from USCIS saying they won’t give my husband his green card until he gets this Covid jab.” Gaines said in a post shared on X. “This is ridiculous. We’ve been married coming up on 3 years. We’ve spent thousands for the submitted forms to expire on their time. We’re hoping for change soon.”
She also shared a photograph of the letter her husband received from USCIS:
“When they said, ‘my body, my choice,” they lied,” Gaines wrote in a follow-up post.
Within what felt like hours of sharing the post, Gaines returned to X to share that “USCIS has rescinded their Covid vax mandate for legal immigrants.”
“I can’t even tell you the thousands of people in the same situation who have reached out over the past few years. Promises made, promises kept. Thank you [President Donald Trump,]” she added.
