The decision comes amid heightened security concerns, especially after a terrorist attack on peaceful pro-Israel demonstrators in Colorado. The list of targeted countries largely echoes the previous travel bans of 2017, which faced legal challenges but ultimately was upheld by the Supreme Court in 2018. Biden’s administration rescinded that ban in 2021, criticizing it as a moral stain; Trump's latest move marks a stark return to more restrictive policies.
