Will Trump Impose Restrictions On Domestic Travel?

The Trump administration has been banned from 37 countries as a convicted felon, including major allies like Canada and the UK. If elected president again, Trump would need special permissions, which would require Prime Minister Trudeau to decide on bending his felon-travel ban for a potential President Trump or exclude him from it. Trump has said he would implement travel bans on people from certain countries or with certain ideologies, expanding on a policy upheld by the Supreme Court.

The Supreme Court issued a ruling upholding Trump’s travel ban, restricting entry from seven countries to. Following a historic arraignment in New York, former President Donald Trump will be returning to his Palm Beach club Mar-a-Lago. The Supreme Court is considering whether President Trump can legally restrict entry to the U.S. for travelers from several Muslim-majority countries.

The Trump administration has made misleading statements about its decision to impose travel restrictions related to the novel coronavirus. The Supreme Court is dropping scheduled oral arguments over Trump’s controversial travel ban, a day after the White House announced a revised one. On January 20, 2021, newly inaugurated president Joe Biden issued a proclamation revoking the Trump travel bans, with the exception of the reverse travel ban.

The Trump administration has floated potentially restricting domestic travel to states such as Washington and California if the coronavirus becomes too hot. The U.S. president took the drastic step of restricting flights from the Schengen Area on March 12, and since then, many other countries have also implemented restrictions.
