Kellyanne Conway, the newly-named counselor to President-elect Donald Trump, told CNN the incoming Administration will not develop policies triggering heightened security based on an individual’s religious affiliation. She said Mr. Trump’s policies will instead focus on heightened vetting for individuals from terrorism-producing countries.
Before the election, the media focused relentlessly on statements suggesting Mr. Trump would ban the immigration of Muslims solely based on their religion. In an interview, CNN's Chris Cuomo pressed Conway on the matter. She said, "No. You're going back to over a year ago in what he said about the (Muslim) ban versus what he said later about it, when he made it much more specific and talked about countries where we know that they've got a higher propensity of training and exporting terrorists."
