PER CURIAM.
Pakistani citizens Saqib Bashir Khan and Neelofur Saqib petition for review
of an order of the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) denying their motion to
reconsider an earlier adverse BIA decision. After careful review, we conclude that
the BIA did not abuse its discretion in denying petitioners’ motion. See Kipkemboi
v. Holder, 587 F.3d 885, 890 (8th Cir. 2009) (standard of review); Strato v. Ashcroft,

-- 1 of 2 --

388 F.3d 651, 655 (8th Cir. 2004) (noting that a motion to reconsider must give the
tribunal a reason to change its mind and that the BIA does not abuse its discretion by
refusing to reconsider arguments it already rejected). Accordingly, we deny the
petition for review. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
