Federal Judge blocks Trump's new Muslim ban

A federal Judge temporarily blocked Donald Trump's new Muslim ban less than a week after Trump signed the executive banning refugees from six Muslim countries for 120 days.

According to The Guardian, the block came after a man who is a Syrian refugee living in Wisconsin filed a second complaint against the Muslim ban, as the ban violated his freedom of religion and right of due process by keeping his family currently living in Aleppo, Syria, from getting a visa to escape from the violence-thorn country.

The first complaint the Syrian man filed was filed when Trump signed the first Muslim ban, but the case was set aside when a federal Judge blocked the ban.

US district Judge Michael Conley agreed with the Syrian refugee and said there were daily threats to the Syrian man’s wife and child that could cause “irreparable harm”, thus issuing a temporary restraining order barring enforcement of the Muslim ban against the family.

However, the order does not block the entire Muslim ban. It only suspends it against the refugee's family.
