Trump’s new travel ban will block ‘those in need of real refuge,’ American Jewish Committee says

JL;DR SUMMARY The American Jewish Committee (AJC) has criticized President Trump's new travel ban, which targets 12 countries, mostly with Muslim majorities, arguing that it unjustly blocks individuals seeking refuge and lacks a clear connection to curbing antisemitism in the U.S. A way out west there was a fella, fella I want to tell you about, fella by the name of Jeff Lebowski. At least, that was the handle his lovin' parents gave him, but he never had much use for it himself. This Lebowski, he called himself the Dude. Now, Dude, that's a name no one would self-apply where I come from. But then, there was a lot about the Dude that didn't make a whole lot of sense to me. And a lot about where he lived, likewise. But then again, maybe that's why I found the place s'durned innarestin'.
