The Supreme Court announced Friday that it will hear a challenge to the latest iteration of President Donald Trump’s travel sanctions, a high-profile addition to a docket burgeoning with landmark decisions.
The justices set the case — Trump v. Hawaii — for oral argument in April.
“The courts below have overridden the president’s judgments on sensitive matters of national security and foreign relations, and severely restricted the ability of this and future presidents to protect the nation,” Solicitor General Noel Francisco, the government’s Supreme Court lawyer, wrote in his petition to the high court.
The current travel ban, which was promulgated in Sept. 2017, restricts travel to varying degrees from Chad, Iran, Libya, North Korea, Somalia, Syria, Venezuela and Yemen.
The high court lifted lower court stays issued against the new order in Dec. 2017.
