CLEVELAND URBAN NEWS.COM-WASHINGTON, D.C- A limited version of President Donald Trump's travel ban is legal and ripe to take immediate effect, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled 6-3 on Monday.
The court ruled also that it would hear the entire case in October, both measures a major victory for the Trump presidency.
The court said Monday that a limited 120-day ban on refugees and the ban on visitors from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, Yemen and Syria could be enforced immediately, a stipulation being that the visitors must show that the have established a bonafide relationship with a U.S. entity or person.
The ruling reverses, in part, lower appellate court rulings that deemed the travel ban unconstitutional and otherwise illegal in its entirety.
And the decision comes as a shock to some, but not to others, the high court becoming more conservative under a Trump presidency compared to his predecessor, Barack Obama,
Justices Clarence Thomas, an ultra-conservative and the only Black on the court, Samuel Alito, also a conservative, and Neil Gorsuch,a Trump nominee who won appointment by the senate this year amid opposition from women's rights groups and left-wing opponents, dissented relative the delay, the trio of justices saying the entire travel ban is legal, in their opinion, and that the majority should have simply ruled that way.
And as Justice Anthony Kennedy, a conservative who will lean moderate, prepares to retire, the Democrats could lose even more clout on the Supreme Court bench, pundits say.
President Trump said the portions of the travel ban determined legal on Monday will now take effect on Thursday, June 29, or 72 hours after Monday's controversial court ruling.
The unprecedented court decision did not come without a fight, immigrant support groups across the nation that have led protests over Trump's travel ban saying Monday that some immigrants are afraid, and will not even speak out anymore.
They [greater Cleveland immigrants] are not speaking out because many of them are afraid," said Debbie Kline, a White activist and Cleveland resident who leads Cleveland Jobs with Justice, and who has organized rallies with other greater Cleveland immigrant support leaders for greater Cleveland immigrants relative to a travel ban they say is extrinsically "racist."
