Five U.S. senators on Feb. 25 introduced legislation to revoke Beijing’s access to 10-year multi-entry visas, a policy they said has enabled Chinese abuses that pose national security risks.

The 10-year visa program, which was rolled out in 2014 during the Obama administration, grants citizens multiple short-term visits to the other country over a 10-year period.
