Families divided by president Donald Trump's executive order are worried about the future. Central Florida attorneys say as a result of the travel order, more people are now filing for citizenship.

"This is home," said Mohammed Alkenani.

Mohammed and his wife Elham Alkenani are Muslim. They’ve been living in Orlando for decades with their five kids. They don't agree with President Donald Trump's temporary travel ban.

"Not every muslim is a terrorist," Mohammed said.

"He knows the Muslims, he says? No he doesn't know anything about the Islam,” Elham explained. “Go read the Quran first and then after that make your rules."

As a green card holder, Mohammed just doesn't feel safe. The travel ban makes it more difficult to enter the country.

For the Alkenanis, travel to and from Sudan is important as they have two other children overseas. "What can I do? He's divided us," Elham said. This is why Mohammed now wants to become a citizen.

Gail Seeram, an immigration attorney, said the number of people coming to her office wanting to file for citizenship has doubled since Trump's order.

"What's causing the alarm and the concern is that at the port of entry -- customs and border protection, right? Attorney representation is not allowed,” Seeram said. “So when people are being pulled aside for secondary inspection or are being detained, they're not allowed to use their cell phones, they're not allowed to call their attorneys."

The Alkenanis are hoping the order is rescinded for the sake of their seven children.

"Just re-think and make any other decision better than to ban these countries," he added.
