Travel Ban and Oregon

ban: Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum said the executive order has hurt Oregon, its residents, employers, agencies, educational institutions, health care system and economy, according to Globe and Mail. Trump's revised ban bars new visas for people from six predominantly Muslim countries Somalia, Iran, Syria, Sudan, Libya and Yemen. Robart on Thursday granted Oregon's request to join Washington and Minnesota in the case opposing the travel ban. It also temporarily shuts down the U.S. refugee program. Hawaii Attorney General Douglas Chin said that the state could not stay silent on Trump's travel ban because of Hawaii's unique culture and history. Unlike the initial order, the new one says current visa holders won't be affected, and removes language that would give priority to religious minorities. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
