Travel: Thanks to Supreme Court, 3rd Time's "The harm" for Trump Travel Ban

The Supreme Court said the Trump administration for now can implement all parts of its latest ban on travelers from certain countries, a significant boost to the White House after a string of setbacks in lower courts.

The high court's action came in a brief written order that granted an emergency request by the administration to let the rules take full effect while litigation challenging the travel restrictions continues.

President Donald Trump, citing national-security concerns, issued his latest travel restrictions on Sept. 24, applying them to eight countries: the Muslim-majority nations of Chad, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen, as well as North Korea and some government officials in Venezuela. It is Mr. Trump's third attempt at a travel ban.
