Supreme Court to Review Trumpâs Travel Ban
The U.S. Supreme Court will rule on  President Donald Trumpâs travel ban   agreeing to hear his appeal of a decision that said he overstepped his authority by restricting entry into the country by people from six mostly Muslim countries.
The case could produce a definitive ruling by late June on the legal issues that have dogged  the travel ban  since  Trump  signed the first version a week after  his  January 2017 inauguration  causing protests and widespread confusion at U.S. airports. The court will hear arguments in April.
Opponents also contend  Trump  is violating the Constitution by discriminating against Muslims. Although the appeals court didnât reach that issue  the Supreme Court said it will consider it.
White House spokesman Raj Shah said  Trump  was pleased that the court agreed to hear the appeal. "We are confident the Supreme Court will ultimately uphold the presidentâs lawful and necessary action to keep the American people safe and enforce these important security standards for entry into the United States " Shah said.
