Awaiting Next Move On Travel Ban
(Washington, DC) — What’s next for the White House travel ban? A senior White House source says rather than go to the U.S. Supreme Court, they could fight the original suspension of the executive order by a federal judge in Washington state. The decision not to go immediately to the Supreme Court comes as the White House looks at several options, including a reworked executive order. President Trump told reporters late last week that he wants to resume restrictions quickly and avoid a long court battle, though he was confident he’d eventually prevail. He said it’s possible he’ll issue a new executive order dealing as soon as today or Tuesday.
