Decision Summary
The combined motions to reopen and reconsider were dismissed. The petitioner failed to provide new facts for the motion to reopen and did not demonstrate an incorrect application of law or policy for the motion to reconsider. The underlying denial, which was upheld, found the petitioner did not establish the 'national importance' of his proposed endeavor as required by the Dhanasar framework.
