It’s morning on the East Coast, but it’s late afternoon in Iran, and Mohsen Hosseini is en route to the airport for a flight to the United States — or so he hopes.
Over the weekend, even with a federal judge’s order in hand saying valid visa holders, like himself, from Iran, Iraq, Syria, Libya , Somalia, Sudan and Yemen were allowed on planes landing at Logan in Boston, it didn’t work. The airline said it knew nothing about the document and was following President Trump’s immigration order.
