Decision Summary
The motion was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the requirements for a motion to reopen or reconsider. The AAO affirmed its prior decision, finding that the petitioner had not established the national importance of her proposed endeavor under the Matter of Dhanasar framework, as she did not prove her work would have a broad societal impact on a scale commensurate with national importance.
