Regina Jefferies Quoted by MPR and KSTP About New Trump Immigration Order

Regina Jefferies, clinical teaching fellow at the James H. Binger Center for New Americans, was quoted by Minnesota Public Radio about President Trump’s second executive order on immigration. “What we've seen since the first order went into effect is an increase in scrutiny for individuals who identify as Muslim or might come from a Muslim-majority country,” said Jefferies. “The idea that the Executive would impose made-up standards, without going through the proper legal process, is extremely problematic.” Jefferies told KSTP that this revised travel ban is more of the same. "I think we will continue to see some of the chaos in the implementation," said Jefferies.
