High Court OKs Execution of Trump Travel Ban; Ban Curtails Visitors,Immigrants from 8 Nations

The U.S. Supreme Court doled out a victory for the Trump administration today (December 4, 2017), ruling that the third version of the president's immigration travel ban can take effect, while it is being challenged in the lower courts, according to the Washington Times website.


The latest travel ban was introduced in September and sought to curtail the admission of visitors and would-be immigrants from eight countries: Chad, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Syria, Venezuela, and Yemen.


Justices Ruth Bader and Sonia Sotomayor dissented.


An unsigned order from the Supreme Court urges the lower courts to move quickly in ruling on the case.
