Congressman Mike Rogers made the following statement after the Supreme Court struck down in part the preliminary injunction against President Trump’s Terrorist Travel Ban.

“Today the Supreme Court rightly allowed most of President Trump’s plan to secure America from Islamic extremists to go into effect. I am confident President Trump will prevail on the merits of the case when it is heard in the high court’s October term.

“However, there's a possibility our judicial system will fail to fully defend American sovereignty. In that case, I am working on legislation that would give the president broad authority to bar any person or group of people that could be members of or infiltrated by a terrorist organization. If the courts do not uphold the law, the Congress must act to protect American citizens.”
