How to use ban in a sentence?

  1. Michael Kratsios:

    If political leaders at the state and local level better understood the magnitude of the risk and the fact that they were essentially doing things that didn't necessarily comply with the federal ban, my suspicion is that more action would be taken to stop this stuff, i don't think anyone is trying to do anything bad here. I don't think anyone is being nefarious.

  5. Steve Vladeck:

    Today's dual rulings on the transgender ban allow the controversial policy to go into effect for now, but also allow the appeals to go forward in the lower courts, the government had asked the Justices to take the issue up even before the appeals courts could rule. Even though Supreme Court denied that request, the fact that Supreme Court is allowing the policy to go into effect suggests not only that it will eventually take the case on the merits, but also that five of the Justices believe the government is likely to prevail if and when Supreme Court happens.
