American Muslims condemn Supreme Court backing for Trump Muslim travel ban

The Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) has held a press conference in Washington to condemn the US Supreme Court’s decision to back Donald Trump’s Muslim travel ban.

The organisation said that the decision has given the Trump administration a free hand to enact discriminatory policies against Muslims and target them at home and abroad.

The ban prohibits most people from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen from entering the US.
