The Speaker of the United States House of Rep, Nancy Pelosi has on Saturday 1st, slammed Donald Trump over the inclusion of Nigeria and other 5 countries to the travel ban list.

So, the Speaker said the expansion of the travel ban list threatens security, outrageous, and diminishes the rule of law in the United States.

However, Pelosi disclosed that the house will be passing a “no ban act” against the immigration visa ban to prevent religious discrimination in the US and minimizes Trump’s ability to impose such sanctions she referred to as “biased and bigoted”

Her statement further reads;

 “The Trump Administration’s expansion of its outrageous, un-American travel ban threatens our security, our values and the rule of law. 

So, the sweeping rule, barring more than 350 million individuals from predominantly African nations from traveling to the United States, is discrimination disguised as policy.

“America’s strength has always been as a beacon of hope and opportunity for people around the world, whose dreams and aspirations have enriched our nation and made America more American.  With this latest callous decision, the President has doubled down on his cruelty and further undermined our global leadership, our Constitution and our proud heritage as a nation of immigrants.

“In the Congress and the Courts, House Democrats will continue to oppose the Administration’s dangerous anti-immigrant agenda.  In the coming weeks, the House Judiciary Committee will mark-up and bring to the Floor the NO BAN Act to prohibit religious discrimination in our immigration system and limit the President’s ability to impose such biased and bigoted restrictions.  We will never allow hatred or bigotry to define our nation or destroy our values.”

The proclamation will put on hold to the issuance of immigration visas to the citizens of Tanzania, Sudan, Kyrgyzstan, Eritrea, Myanmar, and Nigeria. This applies to persons seeking to live in the US permanently. So, Diversity visas to Tanzania and Sudan will also be restricted
