Saturday night and early Sunday morning, protesters converged on Terminal E at Logan International Airport in Boston after some passengers were held by President Trump's controversial executive order banning immigration from seven Muslim-majority nations.

Early Sunday morning, two federal judges in Boston issued a seven-day stay on the order that has nation-wide effects.

Boston Mayor Marty Walsh was at Logan into the night following the developments.

Walsh joined WBUR's Weekend Edition Sunday to discuss the effects of Trump's order.

This segment aired on January 29, 2017.
