@joebiden - A reminder of how you characterized PP10052, the nonimmigrant ban, when it was introduced in June. Suddenly, you can't find the time to reverse this ban you condemned pretty strongly when it was issued. https://twitter.com/JoeBiden/status/1275430918946263041
You also made ending the Muslim ban a day 1 priority. You realize that you're effectively continuing the ban for most of those people when you leave the other bans in place.
A US citizen sponsoring a green card for an elderly parent in Iran was TRIPLE banned until last week - Muslim ban, regional travel ban for Iran and immigrant visa ban. Now they're only DOUBLE banned.
You signed an executive order about family reunification today. But you are keeping 100s of 1000s of families separated by continuing these bans.
You signed another that went on and on about the economic contributions of immigrants while at the same time continuing bans based on the premise immigrants hurt the economy. Be bold and live up to what you say about immigrants. End the bans.
