Supreme Court to hear travel ban
The U.S. Supreme Court is allowing the Trump administration to enforce most of the ban on visitors from six Muslim countries, overturning a lower court’s order to block it.
The judges said they will hear arguments in the case in October. The ruling is a victory for the Trump administration and ticket to discriminate against visitors based on their religion.
The Trump administration said it needed the ban to allow an internal review of the screening process, but we already have ample rules and regulations to screen visa applicants and visitors to the United States and restricting it to six countries does not make us any safer.
We all want to protect America from aggression and from criminals, but singling out a group of people based on religion is not the right policy. We regret the decision of the U.S. Supreme Court, and hope that the Trump administration does not abuse the new order from the court as it did when it enacted the ban early this year and left many people stranded.
