Trump Is Said to Sign New Travel Restrictions Order
Author: New York Immigration attorney Alena Shautsova
It is reported by the Associated Press that Trump is to sign a new Immigration Order restricting travel from certain countries and refugees on this coming Wednesday, March 1, 2017.
The old order was blocked by a Federal Judge, and hence is not being implemented. Trump’s team (as reported) has drafted a new order.
Unfortunately, the source of this news remained anonymous, and the details of the new proposed order are not available.
The restrictions on travel and entry for refugees have been criticized by both republicans and Democrats. The order prohibiting travel from seven countries was poorly drafted and on its face does not pass constitution standards for which it was blocked by a Federal Judge. In anticipation of a new order it is recommended to avoid international travel for those who are in the US, and return to the US for all those who are currently outside.
