At least part of President Donald Trump’s travel ban is going into effect and a final decision will come this fall. The Supreme Court agreed, today, to hear the case in its next session and the justices issued an unsigned opinion allowing the ban to begin except in the case of "foreign nationals who have a credible claim of a bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States.”
Trump issued a revised order back in March that would impose a 90-day ban on travelers from six mostly Muslim countries.
The ban also suspended the nation's refugee program for 120 days, but that was blocked by two different federal appeals courts.
Today's decision is the first win for Trump in a legal saga that's lasted the better part of his young presidency.
Cambridge City Councilor Nadeem Mazen and state Representative Geoff Deihl, a Republican who is weighing a run against incumbent U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren, joined Jim Braude to discuss.
