Biden Is Ending Trump’s Muslim Ban On Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Syrian, Sudan, and Yemen, And Will Be Redirecting Trump’s Wall Money To Fund Other Things

Biden will be putting an end to Trump’s ‘Muslim ban’ on countries on Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Syrian, Sudan, and Yemen, and will also be redirecting Trump’s wall money. As we read in the AP:

 Biden is ending what is variously known as the “travel ban” or the “Muslim ban,” one of the first acts of the Trump administration. Trump in January 2017 banned foreign nationals from seven mostly Muslim countries from entry into the country. After a lengthy court fight, a watered-down version of the rule was upheld by the Supreme Court in a 5-4 decision in 2018.

The new administration says it will improve the screening of visitors by strengthening information sharing with foreign governments and other measures.

Biden is immediately ending the national emergency that Trump declared on the border in February 2018 to divert billions of dollars from the Defense Department to wall construction. He also is halting construction to review contracts and how wall money might be redirected.
