Congressman Mike Rogers made the following statement today after the U.S. Supreme Court upheld President Trump’s travel ban 5-4 in Trump v. Hawaii.

“I was thrilled today to see the Supreme Court uphold President Trump’s travel ban.  It is a huge win for the safety of the American people and our national security.  

“President Trump is exactly right that we must fully vet people from these countries before even considering to allow them into the United States.  Keeping Americans safe is one of the highest duties of the government and this was absolutely the right decision.”

The countries included in the travel ban are:  Libya, Syria, North Korea, Iran, Somalia, Yemen and Venezuela.
