CAIR Response, Muslim Ban Label and Visa Waiver Program
Zahra Billoo of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) labeled the executive order a "Muslim ban" during a media appearance. The hosts argue against this label, noting that the world's most populous Muslim nation, Indonesia, is not included in the ban. They further state the order is legally based on the Visa Waiver Program and follows a 2011 precedent set by the Obama administration regarding Iraqi refugees.
