Striking the Balance: Legal and Policy Implications of Trump’s Ban on Citizens of 12 Countries

Ban on Citizens of 12 Countries: On October 24, 2017, President Donald J. Trump issued Presidential Proclamation No. 9645, commonly known as “Travel Ban 3.0,” which barred nationals from twelve designated countries—Chad, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Syria, Venezuela, Yemen, and additional specified regions—from entering the United States (Trump, Proclamation No. 9645). Framed as a refinement of earlier Executive Order 13769 (January 27, 2017) and Executive Order 13780 (March 6, 2017), this Proclamation suspended new visas, halted refugee admissions in certain categories, and established case-by-case waiver authority (Trump, EO 13769; Trump, EO 13780). The action spurred immediate litigation, led to multiple stays and injunctions, and ultimately reached the Supreme Court in Department of Homeland Security v. Regents of the University of California (DHS v. Regents).
