The President's new travel ban restricts entry from twelve countries, including Haiti, and impacts seven others, drawing comparisons to the 2017 Muslim ban. In a speech announcing the order, Trump stated, 'We don't want 'em.' His previous bans had immediate consequences, leading to chaos at airports and separation of families. There was confusion among enforcement officers, and the Supreme Court had upheld the earlier bans. Jonathan Blitzer, an immigration reporter, provided insights into the anticipated impacts of this newest order, recognizing its potential to mirror the turmoil experienced in past bans.
The first travel ban affected people immediately: travellers were blocked in the middle of their trips. The rules changed quite literally while they were in the air.
What were some of the real-world effects that Trump's previous travel ban had on people's lives? Families were stranded without loved ones. Government officers didn't know how to enforce the rules.
