Appeals court refuses to reinstate Trump travel ban

The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals on Monday ruled against President Trump's so-called travel ban, delivering another blow to the administration as it waits for the Supreme Court to decide whether to intervene. 

The California-based court affirmed in large part the Hawaii district court ruling that blocked the temporary ban on nationals from six-majority countries from entering the U.S.  

Trump stoked controversy last week by again labeling his order a “travel ban.” White House officials had rejected that phrase, saying the administration action is not a ban, but is rather setting up a system of extreme vetting.

In a unanimous ruling Monday, a three-judge panel on the court said Trump's order does not offer a sufficient justification to suspend the entry of more than 180 million people on the basis of nationality.
