Donald Trump’s controversial travel ban has taken effect, blacklisting citizens of 12 countries. The policy came into effect at 00:00 ET (05:00 UK time) on Monday, with the White House claiming the policy was made up of ‘common sense restrictions’ to ‘protect Americans from dangerous foreign actors’.

Multiple Florida communities are in the crosshairs of President DONALD TRUMP’s travel ban. The White House announced Wednesday night that Haitians would face a total ban from coming into the U.S., and that Venezuelans and Cubans would be blocked from permanently immigrating here or from applying for tourist or student visas.
