Decision Summary
The motion to reopen and reconsider was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the legal standards. The petitioner did not introduce new facts or show that the prior decision was based on an incorrect application of law. The AAO found that the submitted evidence was cumulative and did not overcome the previous finding that the petitioner's specific endeavor lacked national importance, distinguishing it from the general importance of the oil and gas industry.
