Schumer: Dems may be able to overturn Trump's ban
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Sunday that Congress may be able to pass legislation overturning President Donald Trump’s recent executive actions on immigration.
“If we get a few more Republicans, I think we might be able to pass legislation to overturn it,” Schumer said at a press conference. “It will be up to getting more Republicans.”
Trump on Friday signed an executive order calling for a 90-day ban on nationals from 7 predominantly Muslim countries entering the United States. The order also included a 120-day ban on admitting refugees and an indefinite halt on admitting refugees from Syria.
