Activists revive 'Muslim ban' challenge over lack of waivers

The Supreme Court may have upheld President Trump’s travel ban, but several dozen Muslims are still challenging the way his administration is carrying it out, saying he’s not living up to the terms he set for his own policy.

The Muslims, in a new court filing Sunday, said Mr. Trump promised there would be waivers available for people from banned countries who nonetheless showed a special reason why they should be admitted to the U.S. But those waivers haven’t been forthcoming, the Muslims said.

Their case is being led by Muslim Advocates, a group that has battled Mr. Trump on immigration in general and has been one of the most vocal critics of the travel ban.

  1. That bar should be set very high - give a highly compelling reason why we should allow you to come here after chanting "Death to..." - and then have a BLT to prove it!

  2. How do you know if a person is a Muslim? Is it on the passport? What if they lie ?
