My heart goes out to those infected with #Ebola and their families both in the United States and in West Africa. This is a terrible virus, and one the world must come together to stop. As infections continue to spread here in the United States, the trust of the American people has been shaken by the administration’s response thus far. It is clear that a temporary travel ban for foreign nationals traveling from Ebola-stricken nations in West Africa should be put in place. The President has the authority to do so, and we have seen that airport screenings and self-reporting simply are not enough.
