more-inA draft of President Donald Trump’s revised immigration ban targets the same seven countries listed in his original executive order but exempts travellers who already have a visa to travel to the U.S., even if they haven’t used it yet. The official said green card holders and dual citizens of the U.S. and any of the seven countries are exempt. The official said the draft is subject to change ahead of its signing, which Mr. Trump has said could come sometime this week. The Wall Street Journal also reported that the current draft of the revised order focused on the seven countries but excluded those with green cards. In its original form, the order temporarily suspended all travel to the U.S. for citizens of those seven Muslim-majority countries for 90 days.
