In January of 2017, President Donald J. Trump signed an executive order entitled: Protecting the Nation

From Foreign Terrorist Entry Into the United States. This order effectively barred entry to the

United States for any foreign national of Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen from entering

the US as well as those from North Korea and Venezuela. Furthermore, the order halted all

refugee arrivals for 120 days and indefinitely stopped Syrian refugees from gaining access to

the United States. Critics of the order have suggested the ban targets Muslims unfairly while

others fear the restrictions will disrupt the flow of travel to the United States. Further
