"Federal judge's ruling doesn't block this key part of Trump's immigration order" It's a win for tech companies Expedia, Amazon and Microsoft, who helped the state make its case by speaking out about the negative impact on their businesses and employees. But the TRO does not address a section of the executive order that could have even greater implications for the country down the line. geekwire.com If interpreted broadly, the new system could mean all foreign nationals — including tourists, diplomats, and asylum-seekers — would be subject to these types of screening procedures when attempting to cross U.S. borders. That would have big implications for Expedia, in particular. The Bellevue, Wash.-based online travel giant filed a brief in support of the Washington attorney general's case against the federal government. The section (Section 4 of the executive order) was not among those explicitly blocked by U.S. District Judge James Robart's order granting Attorney General Bob Ferguson's motion for a temporary restraining order against the U.S. government. Section 4 wasn't among those targeted by the AG's complaint. More: geekwire.com
