Court rejects Trump's travel ban appeal

As i'm sure you know, president Trump has signed an executive order stating that all refugees and immigrant of 7 countries are barred from entry of the us even if they already have obtained visas.  This debated executive order is important not only to the immigrants and refugees entering the US, but it is important to all Americans living domestic or abroad. It effects our co-workers, our neighbors, and citizens trying to go about in their daily lives and be the best Americans that they can be. The lawsuit brought up by the states of Washington and Minnesota challenges the executive order issued by the white house and questions its legitimacy and relevancy pertaining to the issued Executive Order. A three judge panel ruled as of February 9th 2017 at 7:50 p.m. EST to uphold the suspension of the order stating that "... the Government has not shown a likelihood of success on the merits of its appeal, nor has it shown that failure to enter a stay would cause irreparable injury..." I advise you all to read this article and keep up to date on this executive order as it effects the people we interact and take for granted everyday.
