After months of chop and changing, Trump’s Muslim-centric travel ban has been given the green light by the Supreme Court.
The ban will see people from six Muslim-majority countries; Chad, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Syria and Yemen, unable to enter the US unless they have a “bona fide” relationship with a US citizen.
This ban is the third of its type, as the two previous attempts at a travel ban were blocked by the Supreme Court.
It also forbids people from North Korea and Venezuela from entering the US, though bans on these countries had already been permitted by the court in previous attempts.
Prior to this clearance, the ban had been challenged in separate lawsuits by Hawaii state and the American Civil Liberties Union.
Both parties still maintain the opinion that the ban is both discriminatory and violates the US Constitution.
The travel ban has been plagued from the onset, with thousands taking to the streets across America to protest the proposed bans.
The most widely publicised protests took place at LAX after Trump issued the first ban, with hundreds blocking the airport’s streets and entrance.
According to ABC News, there are some exceptions to the ban.
Individuals can still apply for a tourist, educational or business visa, as well as asking for a waiver.
