被一则50万绿卡被禁止入境的新闻刷屏了。


此50万绿卡指的是伊拉克,伊朗,利比亚,索马里,苏丹,叙利亚或也门的国民,由于这些人持有的是绿卡,而他们的护照依旧是原国籍护照,所以受川普新签署的行政令影响,这些人可能被拒绝入境,仅仅是可能,而且仅仅是90天,而十分钟前消息,美国联邦法官已下达命令,暂停遣返持合法签证却遭拘留的外国人,唐奈利的命令即刻起全美生效,现已放行。


此事与中国人毫无关系。


以下是原文:

The executive order President Donald Trump signed Friday night was titled “Protecting the Nation from Foreign Terrorist Entry into the United States.” But by issuing a broad temporary ban on entries to the US from any national of 7 majority-Muslim countries, it turns out, the executive order is also “protecting” America from permanent residents of the United States.


Cases have been reported of permanent residents (green-card holders) being denied entry into the US at the border, or being refused to board planes, because they’re nationals of Iraq, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, or Yemen — countries that are covered by the 90-day ban Trump signed into effect on Friday night. The Department of Homeland Security confirmed to Reuters on Saturday morning that it was applying the ban to green-card holders.


The department doesn’t publish statistics on how many people in the US currently hold green cards. But ProPublica estimated, based on statistics about who’d received green cards over the last 10 years, that 500,000 legal permanent residents of the United States might be banned from re-entering the country if they left, or if they’re currently abroad. (People are eligible to apply for citizenship after five years as green-card holders in most cases, but many don’t do so immediately — so while some of the people who got green cards a decade ago might be citizens already, there are also probably people who have had green cards for over a decade and now will be affected by the ban.)


In some cases, green-card holders are being allowed to enter the US even if they’ve come from a “banned” country. An administration official confirmed Saturday afternoon that they’re making “case-by-case” exceptions to allow certain green-card holders into the US.


“We are hearing that some [legal permanent residents] are being admitted after lots of questions” from Customs and Border Protection agents, says William Stock, the president of the American Immigration Lawyers Association.


But the possibility of being able to get into the US by qualifying for a “case-by-case” exception isn’t exactly reassuring to people who are trying to decide whether it’s safe for them to leave the country. Abed Ayoub of the Arab American Anti-Discrimination Committee called it the “luck of the draw.”


Furthermore, Stock points out, “No airline (or cruise line) will let a national of one of those counties travel, even on the idea that they might be admissible on a case by case basis. That's because the Act allows CBP to fine airlines (or even seize airplanes) if travelers are brought to the US without valid documents.”


The Trump administration’s rhetoric implies that there’s a clear distinction between Americans, and foreigners from whom Americans need to be protected. But legal permanent residents, while they aren’t US citizens, are often citizens-in-waiting; they’ve been accepted into the US for life (as long as they don’t commit crimes) and have passed multiple vetting processes. In the eyes of immigration law, however, they are still “aliens” — and therefore, thanks to the executive order, they risk being exiled from their homes.
