Overview

This event will focus on the short-and long-term impacts of President Trump’s Muslim travel ban executive orders on the American Muslim community and beyond.  The event will take place less than a week after President Trump issued a third iteration of the travel ban.  The event will begin with panelists providing an overview of the travel ban, comments on the ongoing litigation, and discussion of the policies included in and related to the travel ban that have not received as much media attention but are nonetheless increasingly impacting different communities.  Following the panelists’ presentation, there will be an extended Q&A session in which community members can voice their questions and concerns.
