Every one of them is wanting to send a message to President Trump: You are taking us on the wrong road--a road that hurts people around the world, a road that hurts our fundamental values, and a road that decreases our security. This Executive order, this Executive action from the President has had an immediate and painful impact--hundreds of people en route to our country detained at airports although they were legally traveling here. Many of them have been vetted on extended periods, some of them going through several years of vetting, and finally they have in their hand that visa that says, yes, I am going to have a country, and it is going to be the United States of America. And the President crushed that hope. Chaos and confusion abounded.
