President Donald Trump's revised immigration executive order will drop language indefinitely suspending acceptance of Syrian refugees by U.S. authorities, a senior administration official told Fox News Wendesday. Trump's prior "extreme vetting" order temporarily suspended all travel to the U.S. for citizens of seven Muslim-majority countries for 90 days. The White House believes that new order will satisy the courts because it is "grounded in existing security determinations," the official said. The new order would direct a temporary suspension of admission of all refugees while revised screening meansures are put into place, the official added. The revised order will also mandate a 50 percent reduction in refugee admissions for 2017 to just 50,000.
