Attorneys poised to help international travelers at Twin Cities airport

Lawyers from around the Twin Cities will head to the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport again Monday.

They're volunteering in shifts — about four to six at a time — to help those affected by President Donald Trump's executive order that temporarily blocks citizens from seven Muslim-majority countries, and refugees from around the world, from entering the United States.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents appeared to be enforcing the order unevenly at airports — which has created a swirl of anxiety and confusion across the country.

MPR's Cathy Wurzer spoke with Immigration attorney Regina Jefferies, who worked through the weekend at MSP and has been coordinating volunteers there.
