U.S.A. Muslim & Refugee Ban: The Facts You Must Know!

Published: Feb. 1, 2017, 11:56 a.m.

b'Pres. Trump\'s Executive Order, and ban, completely suspends the United States\' Syrian refugee program, which accepted 12,486 Syrians in 2016. It also gives preference to accepting Christian refugees from the Middle East over Muslim refugees. And it reduces the cap on the total number of refugees allowed to enter the US in 2017 from 110,000, to just 50,000. The order itself doesn\'t name the countries whose citizens are banned from entering the USA. Instead, it refers to a statute which applies to seven Muslim-majority nations. They are Syria, Iran, Sudan, Libya, Somalia, Yemen and Iraq, with dual nationals included in the ban.

With this case of Mr. Trump\'s "Muslim ban", his order bars citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries, as aforementioned, from entering the US for a period of 90 days. It also suspends the United States\' refugee system for a period of 120 days. Mr. Trump says his "extreme vetting" system will help "keep radical Islamic terrorists out of the US."
