BREAKING: Trump expected to reveal travel ban expansion on Friday
President Donald Trump is expected to reveal an expansion of his controversial travel ban on Friday, the same day he could be acquitted in his impeachment trial and just days ahead of the president’s annual State of the Union address.
One of the changes calls for people coming from Sudan to be barred from the U.S. diversity visa program, which awards green cards to immigrants, two U.S. officials said. One official said it might be possible for some Sudanese to get waivers. But it’s unclear which other countries will make the final list, or exactly what the new restrictions will entail. As of Thursday, the proposal was still in flux, the officials said.
“The travel ban has been profoundly successful in protecting our country and raising the security baseline around the world,” he said.
