Hoyer Statement on Supreme Court Allowing Enforcement of Muslim Ban Provisions Pending Ruling
WASHINGTON, DC – House Democratic Whip Steny H. Hoyer (MD) released the following statement today after the Supreme Court announced that they will hear President Trump’s Muslim ban case and allow parts of it to be enforced pending their ruling:
“I am disappointed that the Supreme Court will allow some parts of the President’s dangerous Muslim ban to be enforced while the justices hear arguments against it. This ban places our country in serious danger and undermines the very foundations of our democracy. It hands a victory to ISIS and other terror groups by providing them with a potent tool for recruitment and radicalization. I am confident that the Court, after hearing the full case against it, including the President’s own statements about whom the ban targets, will rule this ban unconstitutional and prevent it from eroding Americans’ safety.”
