Immigration ban includes green card holders: DHS
 

President Trump’s executive order banning people from seven Muslim-majority countries from entering the U.S. also applies green card holders from those countries.

"It will bar green card holders," acting Department of Homeland Security spokeswoman Gillian Christensen told Reuters.

Wow, so if you're from those countries and happen to be outside the country now you're screwed. How is this even legal?

There's a bunch of lawsuits already. I think ultimately they will be allowed back in as green card holders, but that could take time.

And people were trying to say his previous EO wouldn't apply to LPRs.

I also read Trump didn't include Muslim majority countries that are affiliated with his hotels and businesses.

Of course not. It's Trump First (not America First as he keeps claiming).

This is some scary stuff. DACA is the ONLY immigrant population that is not being directly targeted by this administration as of right now. I'm not sure if that's a good thing or not...

this is already backfiring on trump. Iran now says it will ban U.S. citizens. Imagine if he did this to us.

Canceling DACA will be the tipping point for everyone on the left that is mad. It'll be all over the media for weeks/months

Of course is a good thing.

No trying to sound selfish but let's hope it continues to be the case.
