Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he revoked the lawful permanent resident status of family members linked to Masoumeh Ebtekar, a spokeswoman for the Islamic terrorists who stormed the U.S. Embassy during the 1979 hostage crisis.
Rubio said the individuals were placed in Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody pending removal from the United States.
He said the Obama administration granted visas to Ebtekar’s son and his family in 2014 and later approved green cards through the Diversity Visa Program in 2016.

“America can never become home for anti-American terrorists or their families — and under the Trump administration, it never will,” Rubio said.
