President Donald Trump's travel ban executive order suffered another legal blow Monday as a second federal appeals court weighed in against the legality of the directive.

A three-judge 9th Circuit panel unanimously turned down a Trump administration request to lift an injunction blocking key parts of Trump's revised order from taking effect.

Last month, another federal appeals court-the 4th Circuit-also rebuffed Trump's effort to move forward with the directive, which he contends is an anti-terrorism measure.
