In an interview with Fox News television on Sunday, White House senior policy adviser Stephen Miller said the administration is considering a range of actions to ensure that immigration is not a path for foreign terrorists. He said the US must protect it borders and people and President Trump has a right to ban someone from entering the US.
On January 27, Trump signed an order banning travel from 7 Muslin-majority countries for 90 days, suspending all refugee admissions for 120 days, and suspending Syrian refugee admissions indefinitely. This order has been blocked by US courts.
