Trump temporary immigration order makes an exception for farm workers - Entrepreneur Generations

President Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday temporarily banning some immigration to the U.S., saying that it would ensure that Americans would have more access to jobs and health care. However, the order doesn't apply to those seeking temporary visas, such as immigrant farm workers or college students, Zolan Kanno-Youngs reports for The New York Times.

"Other exceptions include health care professionals and their families as well as people in the EB-5 program, who invest hundreds of thousands of dollars in programs that create jobs, Kanno-Youngs reports. "Also exempt from the order are members of the military and their children, as well as Iraqis and those from Afghanistan who obtain a visa by assisting military operations. The policy could, however, be expanded; Mr. Trump’s top cabinet officials will convene in at least 30 days to review any restrictions on “nonimmigrant visas,” including visas for seasonal workers."
