Supreme court allows enforcement of Trump travel ban as appeals proceed
The supreme court is allowing the Trump administration to fully enforce a ban on travel to the United States by residents of six mostly Muslim countries. The justices, with two dissenting votes, said on Monday that the policy could take full effect even as legal challenges against it made their way through the courts. The action suggests the high court could uphold the latest version of the ban, which Trump announced in September.
