People who worked with terrorist groups will now have an easier time entering the U.S. legally.
Last week, the State and Homeland Security departments announced they had altered the Immigration and Nationality Act, a federal law, to grant entry into the U.S. and other "immigration benefits" to those who provided "limited" or "insignificant" material support to designated terrorist organizations.
Examples of such support include "routine commercial transactions," "humanitarian assistance," "substantial pressure that does not rise to the level of duress," and "the satisfaction of certain well-established or verifiable family, social, or cultural obligations."
