Dear John,
On Wednesday, President Trump announced a new travel ban that targets more countries than his first term, imposing restrictions on nationals from 19 countries. The countries covered by this new ban represent over 475 million people.
The intended effect of this ban is obvious: making the United States less friendly to immigrants from countries the president deems undesirable and reducing the number of people who legally qualify to come to the U.S. every year.
The American Immigration Council has released a new analysis of Trump’s latest travel ban [[link removed]] :
Travel Ban Analysis [[link removed]]
The analysis answers multiple questions about the visa restrictions, including:
* Who is subject to the new visa ban?
* Who is not covered by the ban?
* What is the stated justification for the ban?
* Can countries be removed from the complete and partial ban lists?
* What are the ramifications?
These travel bans do nothing to make us safer or more prosperous: they harm our economy and indiscriminately punish immigrants who otherwise qualify to come to the United States legally.
If you’d like to support this type of rapid analysis, please consider making a gift to the Council today. [[link removed]]
Sincerely,
Jorge Loweree
