Muslim ban
Religious entry prohibition
Muslim ban refers to Executive Order 13769, signed by President Trump in January 2017, which temporarily barred entry to the United States from seven predominantly Muslim countries.
Critics called it a Muslim ban because Trump had previously called for "a total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States." Supporters preferred terms like "travel ban" or "immigration pause." The order was revised twice after court challenges.
The Muslim ban sparked protests at airports nationwide.
