Why immigration agents detained tourists and green-card holders

There's Rebecca Burke, a British tourist who was backpacking through the U.S. She tried to cross into Canada, the Seattle Times reports, but Canada rejected her because she planned to stay with a host family and do chores in exchange for food and lodging. Canadian authorities said she needed a work visa for that, not a tourist visa.

But when Burke tried to go back to the U.S., her father says she was handcuffed and taken to a detention center. ICE officials say she was detained for violating terms and conditions of her admission, but they didn't immediately provide more information about what that meant. Burke's father spoke with Sky News.

And the research firm Tourism Economics estimates over the course of this year, tourism will decline by 5 percent as a result of Trump's, quote, polarizing policies and rhetoric.
