7:59Now PlayingThe Obama administration has moved to formally end the national registry program for immigrants from majorityMuslim countries, known as the National Security EntryExit Registration System, or NSEERS. Obama’s move comes only one day after Donald Trump appeared to reiterate his pledge to reinstate this very registry, when answering a question from a reporter outside his MaraLago resort in Florida Wednesday. The reporter was asking Trump about Monday’s attack on a Christmas market in Berlin, Germany, which left 12 people dead. In response, Trump said, "You’ve known my plans all along, and it’sthey’ve proven to be right, 100 percent correct." We speak to Naureen Shah, director of Amnesty International USA’s Security and Human Rights Program.
