Trump signs order to build Mexico border wall

President Donald Trump is likely to sign off on an executive order allowing the construction of his proposed U.S.-Mexico border wall. The proposed plans include a halt on all refugee admissions and placing a ban on migrants coming from Muslim-majority countries. While the restrictions have yet to be finalized, the ban tentatively includes admissions from Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen. Officials familiar with the proposals said there is likely to be an exception in the refugee stoppage for those fleeing religious persecution.
