Trump’s travel ban temporarily blocked nationwide by federal judge in Seattle

February 3, 2017 by Michael Boyle

And so far looks like the CBP and airlines are obeying (re-instating visas, reaching out to customers whose plans were interrupted, etc.)… at least that’s the breaking news from CNN.

A federal judge in Seattle ordered a temporary halt on Donald Trump’s travel ban for refugees and people from seven predominantly Muslim nations, opening the path for states to sue the White House over his order.

District judge James Robart granted a temporary restraining order on Friday after hearing arguments from Washington state and Minnesota that the president’s order had unlawfully discriminated against Muslims and caused unreasonable harm.
