Immigration Ban and Terror Arrests

On February 8th, Fox News released an article called White House fires back at immigration order critics with a list of terror arrests by John Roberts and Adam Shaw which talks about the recent immigration ban and arrests that have followed.

This article from Fox News is about those who believe Trump has gone to far regarding the immigration and travel ban. In response to the critics the White House released a list of suspects who have come to the US from the countries in question. The list contains 24 examples of refugees and immigrants from a number off different Muslim countries.

The list being release seems to be rebuke to Seattle US District Judge James Robart who halted the rollout of the executive order. The Justice Department lawyers are attempting to get the order restored.

Names on the White House document names individuals who have been involved in "terror activity" in the past eight years.

Trump defended his order at a local meeting and warned the people that while that until the issue is resolved (restoring the executive order) the country is at risk.

The article ends with a Washington State Solicitor argues that Trumps campaign reveals evidence of intending discrimination.

This article is worth reading because it is important to stay up to date with all current orders put through by a new President. This order can effect many people so it is good to stay posted on its progress.
