US will restart visa services, State Department says, amid Trump’s efforts to restrict immigration
ABC News reports that U.S. embassies and consulates around the world will soon resume visa services, though DOS did not provide details on where or when. After Secretary of State Mike Pompeo issued an unprecedented authorized departure in March for all U.S. missions, allowing diplomats and their families to return to the United States, many posts are still facing staffing shortages and are contemplating how to restart services with social distancing practices in often-crowded waiting rooms.
