Situation for international students/post-docs has become unsustainable. They are stuck here, unable to go home to visit family or travel outside the US for conferences or vacations. International offices at many universities have gone online and don’t respond to email requests.

This is me.. last time I saw my parents was April 2019... I still can't travel..
Talking to a student whose visa will expire soon and is staying put in the US for fear that if they leave, they will be denied re-entry. Which means they will not see their family for yrs, go to intl conferences, or travel outside the US.
