The U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals yesterday heard oral arguments (
video of full arguments) in
State of Hawaii v. Trump, (Docket No. 17-15589). In the case, a Hawaii federal district court issued a nationwide temporary injunction against enforcement of key portions of President Trump's second "travel ban" Executive Order. (See
prior posting.) As reported by the
New York Times, at issue in the arguments are whether the Executive Order can be considered a "Muslim ban" that violates the Establishment Clause.
