the language is virtually identical. So as a result while the new ban has narrowed the scope of people impacted by it, those provisions still are in place and they still negatively impact the people of my state.

there's no question in my mind that the president realized that the original executive order was indefensible and frankly four federal judges agreed with that.

Yes. No, I mean, hey, they said, for example does not apply to green card holders. That's about 500,000 people in the United States.

I do not take suing the president lightly. And I twice sued the Obama administration, I've now sued the Trump administration, so I have some experience. All successful so far, I might add.

the bottom line really from our perspective is that on many of the key aspects of our litigation that we brought over a month ago, that this is essentially capitulation by President Trump and his administration.

Many businesses in our state, the universities that we represent feel very strongly that this executive order has done great harm to them, to their employees, to their students.

Yes, it's complete perpetuation by the President. There is no other way to read that.

I hope that the President and his administration is taking away a very hard-earned lesson from this experience, which is, if you're going to draft an executive order, do it with care, do it with scrutiny, and make sure it's constitutional.

I anticipate they'll seek review with the U.S. Supreme Court.

My job is go where the law takes me... What matters intensely to me is whether the administration, any administration, is acting unlawful or unconstitutional way that harms the people that I represent.

One does not in trying to show a discriminatory intent or motivation, applies to everybody in a class.
