A new travel ban has been implemented by President Trump, restricting entry to the United States for several countries.

SAN DIEGO — President Donald Trump has implemented a travel ban that restricts entry to the United States for citizens of 12 countries, with partial restrictions on seven additional nations. The ban, which went into effect at midnight Eastern Daylight Time, aims to protect national security and U.S. interests, according to a presidential proclamation.

The 12 countries facing travel restrictions include Afghanistan, Burma and Haiti. Partial restrictions and limited entry apply to countries including Cuba, Togo, and Venezuela.

“I don’t think that a travel ban is really the right thing to do in this scenario. I think we have adequate security in the United States to prevent threats,” said John Mayberry, a San Diego County resident interviewed at San Diego International Airport.

The ban has raised concerns about its impact on families and international students. Mehdi Moein, advisor for the House of Iran at Balboa Park, commented on the potential effects.

“It’s not only Iran, but also there are 11 other countries as well. I can assume that first and foremost, they will feel like they have been signaled out, they have been kind of ostracized from the rest of the world,” said Moein.

He added, “There will be disconnection, meaning that the people that wanted to come to see their family, they will not be able to do that, the students that wanted to come and study here, they will no longer be able to come.”

The travel ban includes some exceptions. U.S. permanent residents, athletes or team members traveling for major sporting events, special immigrant visa holders for U.S. government employees, and those facing persecution in Iran are not affected. Visas issued before the ban took effect will remain valid.

President Trump’s proclamation indicates a willingness to work with countries that improve their information sharing and identity management procedures to address terrorism-related and public safety risks.

The Trump administration on Monday will begin enforcing an expansive new travel ban for people from 19 countries, restrictions that come eight years after President Donald Trump’s first attempt to impose a ban led to chaotic scenes at U.S. airports. Trump announced the new policy last week, fully banning travelers from a dozen countries and partially restricting those from another seven. Administration officials said the prohibitions are necessary to improve national security by targeting countries that have ties to terrorism, lack sufficient vetting for passports and have high rates of citizens who overstay their U.S. visas.

Immigrant advocates said they do not anticipate the same level of mass protests that greeted Trump’s announcement of an immediate ban in January 2017 on travelers from some Muslim-majority countries. That decree led federal authorities at U.S. airports to detain people with valid visas who were traveling to the country when Trump made his announcement, prompting a flurry of lawsuits challenging the order. Two versions of the ban were halted by federal judges.

Trump’s latest effort, however, may be more difficult to challenge in court. In 2018, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld a third revision of the ban. Legal experts said the Trump administration has applied lessons from Trump’s first term and crafted the new order in a way that makes it less susceptible to being blocked.

The White House said the restrictions include exceptions for legal permanent residents, refugees already in the country, current visa holders and individuals whose entry serves U.S. national interests. Unlike in 2017, the administration also provided several days’ notice for the provisions to take effect, giving prospective travelers and foreign governments time to prepare for the changes.

“A lot of what people remember from the first Muslim travel bans was that they resulted in this chaos at airports,” said Stephanie Gee, senior director of U.S. legal services at the International Refugee Assistance Project. “There was a mass mobilization around that. I wouldn’t anticipate the same scale of that issue because it seems like they learned their lesson on the implementation front.”

Trump’s order fully restricts the entry of individuals from Afghanistan, Chad, Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Myanmar, Somalia, Sudan and Yemen. It also partially restricts the entry of travelers from Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan and Venezuela.

Democrats and at least one Republican — Rep. Michael Lawler of New York — have denounced the ban as inhumane and unnecessary. Lawler, whose district includes the Hudson Valley, with a large population of Haitian immigrants, said that country was experiencing an unprecedented humanitarian crisis because of widespread violence. He called on the administration to remove Haiti from the list.

“This shameful ban revives some of our nation’s most reviled discriminatory immigration practices,” Connecticut Attorney General William Tong (D) said in a statement. “We are evaluating all legal options in coordination with our multistate partners to defend the integrity of our immigration laws.”

The effort to significantly curtail travelers from 19 countries comes as the Trump administration has pursued extraordinary measures to curtail illegal and legal immigration, including efforts to enact mass deportations, ban birthright citizenship, suspend refugee admissions and scrap due process rights for alleged gang members from Venezuela.

In a video message last week, Trump defended the travel restrictions as a way to protect the country against potential terrorist attacks or other security threats, even though national security analysts question the need for such measures. Alex Nowrasteh, a policy analyst at the libertarian-leaning Cato Institute, said one person has been killed on U.S. soil by a terrorist from one of the countries facing a full ban on travel.

US President Donald Trump’s sweeping new travel ban came into effect early Monday immediately after midnight, barring citizens from a dozen nations from entering the United States and reviving a divisive measure from his first term.

The move was expected to disrupt refugee pathways and further restrict immigration as the Trump administration expands its crackdown on illegal entries.

Many of the nations covered by the restrictions have adversarial relations with the United States, such as Iran and Afghanistan, while others face severe crises, like Haiti and Libya.

In announcing his restrictions last week , Trump said the new measure was spurred by a recent “terrorist attack” on Jews in Colorado.

The group had been protesting in solidarity with hostages held in Gaza when they were assaulted by a man the White House said had overstayed his visa.

President Donald Trump’s newly signed travel restrictions officially took effect on Monday, impacting citizens from 12 countries, primarily in Africa and the Middle East, along with others in the Caribbean and Asia.

The proclamation, signed last Wednesday, applies to citizens of Afghanistan, Myanmar, Chad, the Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen. Heightened restrictions also extend to individuals from Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan, and Venezuela who are outside the United States and do not hold valid visas.

While the order does not revoke previously issued visas, new applications from the affected countries will be denied unless the applicant qualifies for a narrow exemption. Visa holders from these nations may still enter the US under existing documentation.

President Trump stated that the measure addresses terrorism, public safety threats, and concerns over visa overstays. He cited deficiencies in security vetting and cooperation from some of the listed countries. His remarks referenced data from Homeland Security regarding visa overstays and recent security incidents.

The order has drawn criticism from aid and refugee support groups, as well as from the Venezuelan government, which denounced the move as discriminatory.
