This is so sad & it proves the right wing “we’re ok with immigrants if they do it legally!” is a huge lie. Like always, they move the goalposts to accommodate their bigotry.
They’re pausing naturalization proceedings. After those people did everything the right way.
From the link:
“The US has halted the processing of all immigration applications linked to 19 countries already subject to a travel ban, according to an internal official memo seen by BBC partner CBS News.
Immigration agents have been told to "stop final adjudication on all cases", and pause naturalisation ceremonies for migrants on the cusp of gaining citizenship.”
