President Trump’s executive order to "pause" the issuance of green cards for 60 days, he says, is to ensure Americans, and not immigrants, get jobs when the economy rebounds. But Trump's temporary immigration ban comes at a time when immigrants in the country already feel under attack and are already limited under the pandemic.
