Written by Philip Hodges

The big news last week was when President Trump signed an executive order temporarily banning immigration from several Middle Eastern countries, and stopping the immigration of refugees from Syria indefinitely.

Citizens from these countries will not be able to come to the United States for 90 days: Sudan, Syria, Yemen, Iran, Iraq, Libya and Somalia. Refugees, in general, will be barred from entering the U.S. for 120 days, but Syrian refugees specifically have been barred until further notice. People have already been detained or even turned away at airports.
