Neal Statement on Supreme Court Decision in Trump v. Barbara

Washington, D.C.- Congressman Richard E. Neal released the following statement after the Supreme Court ruled in Trump v. Barbara:

"Today's decision should never have been in question, but with the Court upholding more than 157 years of legal precedent, a pillar of our democracy has been preserved. America has always been a beacon of freedom and opportunity for those seeking a better life. With Trump's disgusting distraction struck down, we recommit to that legacy.

"Our democratic values, and the equal protection under our laws, have paved the way for generations of people to realize their American dream. That promise cannot be erased by executive order in service of an extreme immigration agenda. Despite the President's attempts to unravel our progress and thwart our freedoms, we will keep fighting for an America where the rule of law prevails and opportunity and fairness belong to all."
