summary:
Questions about immigration and the rights of these refugees have emerged three days after Trump signed an executive order preventing immigrants from staying or coming to the US. There are many problems about whether or not the President can do this unilaterally and without the checks and balances policies enforced. There is still question on who the Ban will impact but many opposers are labeling it as the muslim ban. Refugees from any country are blocked from entering the US for the next 120 days, Syria refugees are barred indefinitely, and citizens from seven Muslim-majorit countries are banned from entering for 90 days. The law even banned legal permanent residents who hold green cards. Many airports are starting to enforce this new policy.
analysis:
This article was created by Amanda Taub and Max Fisher from the New York times. Although neither of them are suffering directly from this order, they still found it important to educate others about the impact this may have on these refugees and america as a whole? It's unfortunate that this is happening at a time like this because although america is trying to progress, we seem to be moving backward. Although this is surprising, this isn't new news. Donald Trump made his intentions clear throughout the election process as he was running for president. This article was written to enlighten America and the rest of the world on the questionable actions of our new president. This is a very important time for America right now because we are all unsure about what other bold actions Mr. Trump may order. This can be synthesized to the Know-nothing party in the 1840s.

I agree that with who the american public have chosen to be their president, that progress has taken several steps back, and it is our job as woke people to stay ready and educated as the time goes by, and to fight the system.
