An inter-agency discussion about imposing travel restrictions on countries that are not compliant with electronic documents and information sharing -- a key focus of the administration -- is underway, according to a senior administration official. The travel restrictions would be tailored to the countries, if they're added, and not impose a ban on them altogether, the official noted. The administration has argued that the travel ban is vital to national security and ensures countries are in compliance with security measures. In 2018, the Supreme Court upheld the third version of the travel ban after previous bans ricocheted through the courts.
