For those living in visa waiver countries. Funny somehow the MSM didn't make a stink about it.
BTW, I totally agree with this decision also. All that had to happen to revoke visa waiver status is if some visited bolded country.
WASHINGTON — The Obama administration on Thursday announced changes to a visa-waiver program that would make it harder for travelers to enter the United States from Europe if they had dual citizenship
from Iran, Iraq, Sudan or Syria, or had visited one of those countries in the last five years.
Those travelers will now have to go through the more rigorous regular visa application process to enter the country. The Department of Homeland Security, which announced the changes, said they would take place immediately.

Most travelers from countries in the visa-waiver program may visit the United States for up to 90 days without a visa. They go through a shorter process and pay a smaller fee than visa travelers do. They apply for travel authorization by submitting personal information, including employment, communicable diseases and criminal history. After arriving, Customs and Border Protection officers make the final decision regarding entry.
The United States changed waiver eligibility for certain visitors last year, after the 2015 Paris attacks.
People who had traveled to Iran, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, or Yemen since 2011 became ineligible.
People who were dual nationals of a visa-waiver country and Iran, Iraq, Sudan or Syria also became ineligible. These travelers, as well as anyone whose travel authorization is not approved, have to go through the visa process.
