Ms. KAPTUR. Madam Speaker, I rise to focus on President Trump's
curious executive action to deny U.S. entry of certain refugees and
travelers who were cleared and properly vetted. The arbitrary and
discriminatory nature of his order is odd in that he only identified
seven countries to be included. One must ask: Why were other nations excluded? Yes, excluded from the
executive order are several Middle Eastern, African, and other nations
where The Trump Organization has business interests, including Turkey,
the United Arab Emirates, Azerbaijan, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia, where
the majority of 9/11 terrorists originated. We know Mr. Trump has failed to divest from his company, as ethics
experts have duly noted.
