Hawaii Points: Administration Plea and Justices Wind

hawaii points: The high court is considering the administration's request and could act before the justices wind up their work at the end of June, according to The Chronicle Herald.

Hawaii points to comments President Donald Trump made last week on Twitter to underscore its argument that the policy is a thinly veiled Muslim ban.
