Democratic attorneys general in three states announced Thursday that they
will try to block the Trump administration's new executive order on travel
in court, pushing for the temporary restraining order that halted the first
order to remain intact.
In early February, U.S. District Court Judge James Robart issued an order
blocking the first version of the administration’s ban, which covered
immigrants and visitors from seven Muslim-majority countries. Robart’s
ruling was upheld by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, forcing the Trump
administration to issue a new travel ban earlier this week after some
revisions.
Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson (D) said Thursday his office will
file a motion asking Robart to reaffirm that the order applies to the new
version of the travel ban, which is scheduled to go into effect next
Thursday, March 16.
“We’ve won in court, and the president has had to honor those defeats,”
Ferguson told reporters at a press conference in Seattle. “It’s my
expectation that we will continue to prevail, and certainly my expectation
that the president will continue to respect the decision of the court.”
Ferguson said the state will continue to argue that the travel ban amounts
to a ban on Muslims. In the initial suit, Ferguson’s office relied on
comments from President Trump and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani,
a Trump backer, who said the president asked him to come up with a legal way
to ban Muslims.
The new ban, which some legal experts have said avoids some of the pitfalls
that hampered the initial version, now blocks citizens of six Muslim-
majority countries: Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Syria and Yemen. Iraqi
citizens, covered by the initial ban, will be allowed to travel to the
United States under the new order.
New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman (D) and Oregon Attorney General
Ellen Rosenblum (D) will join Washington in challenging the new ban.
“President Trump’s latest executive order is a Muslim ban by another name,
imposing policies and protocols that once again violate the Equal
Protection Clause and Establishment Clause of the United States Constitution
,” Schneiderman said in a statement.
Ferguson’s motion is the second major legal action against the Trump
administration’s new ban. Hawaii Attorney General Doug Chin filed suit in
federal court on Wednesday alleging the travel ban would hurt Hawaii’s
tourism industry and its businesses, along with Hawaii educational
institutions.
Asked about Hawaii’s lawsuit, White House press secretary Sean Spicer said
Thursday the administration remains hopeful that its new ban will survive
court scrutiny.
"I think we feel very comfortable that the executive order that was crafted
is consistent with — we’re going to go forward on this — but I think by
all means, I don’t— we feel very confident with how that was crafted and
the input that was given,” Spicer said Thursday. | r******g
