Lawful permanent residents are excluded, which was the (eventual) aim of the first order, but so are current visa holders.pic.twitter.com/DtDCrmtTZs

The refugee portion of the order gets rid of the indefinite halt for Syrian refugees and eliminates the religious preference upon restart.

Sec 12 is notable, trying to give some sort of process under the new order and to undo some bad things that happened under the first order.pic.twitter.com/2haeWQq0vt

Washington AG Bob Ferguson says the new EO is "drastically narrowed" from the originally challenged EO, cautious on next steps.pic.twitter.com/d0HwtmXcFh
-
On those next steps: "Too soon to say what we're going to do. That's the bottom line," saying the legal issues are "complex and numerous."
-
Ferguson says that he hopes "the president and his advisers" learned from the original order process that "we are a nation of laws."
-
The 10-day delay until implementation gives Ferguson and his office, he says, time to determine their next steps.
-
"Not even close," Ferguson says, to deciding the next steps.
-
Ferguson: "The changes in this new executive order are profound. ... That's a rewarding feeling, as a legal team."
-
"A period of two to three days" for review on the next steps, Ferguson says.

Notably, AG Mark Herring of Virginia had a similarly cautious response.pic.twitter.com/29f0EkTZDU
