Here is the Introduction verbatim:
"This ban, when first promulgated,
included individuals on immigrant visas and returning lawful permanent residents."
So why is it ok for returning lawful permanent residents to be banned ? To become a permanent resident, you have to go through tons of paperwork and background checks already. It takes anywhere from 9-12 months to even years to get a green card. The point is that this executive order completely ignored lawful PRs and that is totally unfair and probably unconstitutional. Whats next ? Naturalized citizens ? Then who is next ?
I can understand banning non-americans. But lawful Permanent Residents are considered "US Persons" as per definition which means they have all the rights as a citizen except the right to vote and run for office. If I was PR who was treated like this, I will be furious. Period. And I love America.
- pharrington 10y agoIt's not OK, it's totally fucked. However, I was saying the article was poor reporting. That has nothing at all to do with with my views on the policies and actions in play.
- codegeek 10y agooh ok. I read your post and my take away was that this entire topic is garbage. My bad.
