A federal judge in Honolulu said Wednesday that Hawaii can proceed with the filing of what would be the first lawsuit challenging President Donald Trump's revised travel ban.

U.S. District Judge Derrick Watson granted the state's request to continue with the case and set a hearing for March 15 — the day before Trump's revised ban is due to go into effect.

Hawaii officials previously sued to stop Trump's initial travel ban but that suit was placed on hold by Watson amid legal challenges around the country.


On Tuesday night, a day after Trump's administration announced its new ban, attorneys for the state filed their proposed revision in federal court along with a motion asking that it be allowed to proceed.

Watson approved that motion and said the state will file the final lawsuit later Wednesday.

The lawsuit says the revised travel ban will harm the Muslim population of Hawaii as well as schools and employers.

As long as the correct question is asked: Does the President have the power to restrict Visas?

I think he does.

Of all the states in the Union, Hawaii is the least likely place for refugees to enter into the country

WTF are they bitching about?

Liberals gonna liberal. You can say any action is "harmful" in some way. Perhaps they should be considering the possible harm of allowing refugees in from those countries.
