On Friday, President Donald Trump signed an executive order that restricts immigration from seven predominantly Muslim countries — Iran, Iraq, Sudan, Somalia, Syria, Yemen, and Libya — in an attempt to improve national security.
In short, the order states that people from those seven countries are banned from entering the United States for 90 days, while refugees are banned for 120 days.
The new policy has already made an impact on roughly 100 to 200 people who were held at American airports this weekend as, according to CNN, “travelers who fit the ban's criteria and were already in the air headed for the US on Friday afternoon when Trump signed the executive order were stopped and detained upon arrival at US airports.
