Brennan Center Wins Suit Against Trump’s Third Muslim Ban, Fight for American Values Continues
Zakzok v. Trump was brought by the Center and CAIR on behalf of six American Muslim plaintiffs for whom the travel ban would have devastating consequences.
Today, a federal court in Maryland ruled that President Trump’s third attempt to institute the “Muslim Ban” promised during his presidential campaign was in violation of the law and the Constitution, and cannot be implemented as planned on October 18. The previous two versions of the ban were also struck down by courts. Eblal Zakzok, the lead plaintiff in the Brennan Center’s case, wrote an op-ed for USA Today Monday explaining how the ban has affected his family and those of other American Muslim plaintiffs. ### |
