The petitioner failed to establish the national importance of his specific endeavor, despite the general importance of the trucking industry and the shortage of truck drivers in the U.S.
Why This Petition Was Denied
The motion to reopen and reconsider was dismissed because the petitioner failed to present new facts relevant to the prior decision or demonstrate an incorrect application of law or policy. The AAO found that the petitioner's arguments regarding the general importance of the trucking industry and its collective impact did not establish the national importance of his specific endeavor, nor did he provide sufficient support for his hiring projections.
