A federal judge in Manhattan spent seven months unwinding the Trump administration's ban on immigrant visas covering 75 nations. Four days after she finally struck it down, the State Department replaced it with something far larger: a pause on immigrant visa interviews everywhere, touching every nationality instead of just the list the court just voided, according to immigration-law tracker Boundless. For Latino families who spent those seven months checking whether their country made the original list, the distinction has essentially disappeared.
