This Assembly:

Condemns the 90 day travel ban by the USA President on nationals from several majority-Muslim countries and permanent ban on refugees from Syria.

Is concerned about the impact of this ban on the wellbeing and livelihoods of dual-nationality Welsh citizens.

Calls on the Welsh Government to speak out against the unconstitutional, unethical, discriminatory and ineffective ban on the movement of Muslims from specific countries into the USA.

Rejects this discrimination and emphasises that the National Assembly values all citizens of Wales, regardless of religion or background and we will all stand together to protect and defend each other.
