iranian alliance: The Trump administration in September announced the most recent restrictions, which affect citizens of Chad, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Syria, and Yemen -- and some Venezuelan government officials and their families, according to CTV. They are to go into effect Oct. 18. The lawsuits were filed Monday in federal courts in New York and Maryland. One lawsuit, filed Monday night in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Maryland on behalf of the Iranian Alliance Across Borders and six individuals, argues that restricting travel for citizens of predominantly Muslim countries violates the U.S. Constitution. This erosion of fundamental American values must stop, said Shayan Modarres, legal counsel for the National Iranian American Council, one of the groups that filed the lawsuit. Iranian Americans, and other affected communities, have had to familiarize themselves with ambiguous new laws and policies every few months because of this president's obsession with fulfilling a flawed campaign promise to ban Muslims from the United States.
