Supreme Court: Travel Ban and Court

supreme court: The administration said it would seek further review at the U.S. Supreme Court, as it has already done with a ruling against the travel ban by another appeals court last month, according to The Chronicle Herald. The high court is likely to consider the cases in tandem. The decision by a unanimous three-judge panel of the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals helps keep the travel ban blocked and deals Trump a second big legal defeat on the policy in less than three weeks. Attorney General Jeff Sessions insisted the new decision would harm national security an argument the judges rejected. Unfortunately, this injunction prevents the president from fully carrying out his Article II duties and has a chilling effect on security operations overall. The executive branch is entrusted with the responsibility to keep the country safe under Article II of the Constitution, Sessions said in a written statement. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
