Attorneys general for 16 states and Washington, D.C., filed an amicus brief Friday with the Supreme Court in support of Hawaii’s case against the Trump administration’s latest ban prohibiting travel from several majority-Muslim nations.
New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman (D) vowed that the coalition of Democratic state officials would continue to oppose President Trump’s efforts to ban travel from nations the administration says do not meet information-sharing requirements, calling the ban “discriminatory.”
“Since Day One, our coalition of attorneys general has been on the front lines of the fight against this unconstitutional, unlawful, and un-American ban,” Schneiderman said in a statement announcing the amicus brief.
