Trump Considering BIG Exansion to Travel Ban List

President Trump is reportedly considering a massive expansion of the travel ban list in a move that will surely upset many liberals and could trigger lawsuits.

According to The Daily Wire:

President Donald Trump is reportedly considering ramping up the number of countries that are on the travel ban list, which targets countries that have strong ties to terrorism.

The Associated Press spoke to several people in the Trump administration who reportedly said that the expanded travel ban list was “timed to coincide with the third anniversary of Trump’s January 2017 executive order” and reportedly included up to seven new countries.

“The countries on the proposed expansion list include allies that fall short on certain security measures,” The AP added. “The additional restrictions were proposed by Department of Homeland Security officials following a review of security protocols and ‘identity management’ for about 200 countries, according to the person.”

The most current travel ban list includes: Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen, as well as Venezuela and North Korea.

Democrats have dubbed the list the “Muslim ban” but Venezuela and North Korea do not have large Muslim populations which hurts this argument for Democrats.
