The Trump administration has ordered a pause on immigration decisions for people from 19 countries previously subject to travel restrictions, following the fatal shooting of a National Guard member near the White House by an Afghan national. The move affects green card and citizenship applications and extends a broader clampdown on asylum and other immigration benefits for certain nationalities.
Five months after the Trump administration paused immigration processing from high-risk countries following a deadly D.C. shooting, the policy—now covering 39 nations—has stranded thousands already in the U.S. in legal limbo, facing job losses, stalled careers, and deportation fears. Personal stories highlight hardship, while lawsuits yield court orders for relief.
