President Trump has stated that he plans to sign an executive order that will suspend all immigration into the United States due to the pandemic crisis.
According to The Daily Caller:
President Donald Trump tweeted late Monday night that he will sign an executive order temporarily limiting all immigration to the United States in light of the coronavirus pandemic.
In light of the attack from the Invisible Enemy, as well as the need to protect the jobs of our GREAT American Citizens, I will be signing an Executive Order to temporarily suspend immigration into the United States!

The White House did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller’s inquiries on the president’s announcement.
Trump frequently touts his coronavirus travel bans, on both China and the European Union nations, during the daily White House press briefings.
It remains unclear when President Trump will sign the executive order.
