Washington AG Gets Trumps Travel Ban Blocked

A Seattle federal judge issued a temporary restraining order blocking President Trump's travel ban.  This was a result of the work of Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson. Judge James Robard, a Bush appointee issued the order.
 It is not the first time an attorney general from Washington has challenged a sitting president.  Rob McKenna, a Republican, challenged President Obama's Affordable Care Act.  McKenna was not successful.
