Kandel, Analyst in Immigration Policy (wkandel(Thcrs ,lcgv, 7-4703) On September 24, 2017, President Donald Trump issued a presidential procamatio enitld Enhancing Vetting Capabilities and Processes for D? in Atm Entr In h nit Terrorists or Pubi-afey Thrats (the proclamation) that suspends and/or restricts U.S. entry of foreign nationals from eight countries. The proclamation replaces aspects of Nportions of which federal courts had blocked. E.O. 13780 revoked and replaced E 0 13769 ised on Januar 27 2017 which federal courts had also blocked. The proclamation describes what occurred following President Trump's issuance of E.O. 13780. That executive order imposed certain travel restrictions on nationals of six countries and refugees. It also mandated that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), in consultation with the Department of State (DOS) and the Director of National Intelligence, determine whether, and if so what, additional information would be needed from each foreign country to assess whether its nationals seeking to enter the United States posed a security or safety threat. DHS and DOS subsequently bolstered baseline requirements for immigration screening, with three types of information required from foreign governments to allow the United States to confirm individual identity and assess individual security threats: * 1. Identity-management information, including whether the country issues electronic passports embedded with data to enable confirmation of identity, reports lost and stolen passports to appropriate entities, and makes available upon request identity-related information not included in its passports; * 2. National security andpublic safety information, including whether the country makes available, directly or indirectly, known or suspected terrorist and criminal-history information upon request, whether the country provides passport and national-identity document exemplars, and whether the country impedes the United States Government's receipt of information about passengers and crew traveling to the United States; and * 3. National security andpublic safety risk assessment, including whether the country is a known or potential terrorist safe haven, whether it is a participant in the Visa Waiver Program ... that meets all of its requirements, and whether it regularly fails to receive its nationals subject to final orders of removal from the United States.
