Travel Ban ‘Slippery Slope’ for POTUS, Says Law Professor

“Lawyers call this a slippery slope argument. The slippery slope dominated the oral argument on the legality of the administration’s travel ban before the Supreme Court in Trump v. Hawaii. No justice suggested that a sound national security rationale undergirds this travel ban.”

This statement comes from David Driesen, a University Professor at the College of Law, who wrote an opinion piece for The Hill regarding President Trump’s plans for a travel ban, and whether that would be giving the president too much power.
