"The Supreme Court announced Friday it will take up the case against the latest version of President Trump's travel ban, which bars entry in to the United States for residents of six majority-Muslim countries.

The court will hear arguments in April and is expected to issue a ruling by June." http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2018/01/19/supreme-court-announces-it-will-rule-on-trumps-travel-ban.html

    I don't think this is the best way to fight it, personally

    If the ban is unconstitutional, then this is one of the best ways to fight it and apparently the case has enough merit to get this far. If the ban is constitutional, then it is best that everyone knows what the expanse of these powers is.

    I haven't really been following the issue but, in general, I'm in favor of limiting the powers of the executive branch especially whenever they use terrorism as an excuse.
