To your second question, US citizens should not be worried about travel bans at this time. You, your siblings, and mother should be safe in traveling. The birthright citizenship Executive Order has no effect at this time. On the second question of your mother’s approved petitions for her siblings, President Trump has not yet proposed changing the family preference categories as he did in his first term, but there is a good possibility that he will get around to doing so. In that case, any effect on your mother’s petitions would be determined by the language of the passed legislation. Please note that such a change would require a bill by Congress and could not be done through regulation or executive order.
