Rabbi Jack Moline, president of Interfaith Alliance, issued the following statement:

“Today’s Supreme Court decision upholding President Trump’s so-called ‘travel ban’ is an abandonment of the values on which this nation was founded. Two branches of our government have now gone on record as being willing to single out certain people based on their faith. This administration has done more to undermine our standing in the world than any other in American history. Having the highest court in the land back President Trump while Congress sits silently and watches is a sad, but not unexpected result. I suspect this is not the final word on this matter, and Interfaith Alliance will do all we can to move Congress toward action that undoes this un-American outcome.”
