美国司法部已经向旧金山的联邦上诉法院提交陈述书，要求恢复川普总统对七个以穆斯林为主的国家的旅行限令。
美国联邦第九巡回上诉法院将从星期二开始听取双方的口头申诉。
司法部指出，旅游限令是“总统合法行使针对外国人进入美国和接纳难民事务的权力”，并称联邦法官下令暂停执行这一禁令是一个错误，而且“极为过分”。
美国有近100家公司、两个州和一群民主党人，包括前国务卿克里和奥尔布赖特都提出了反对禁令的抗辩材料。
民主党人说，这一禁令“考虑不周、执行不当、解释不利。” 他们认为，“这一行政命令将最终破坏美国国家安全秩序，而不是使我们更安全。”这与川普认为旅游限令将加强国家安全的论点相反。
此外，美国有97家科技公司，包括硅谷巨头苹果、脸书、谷歌、微软和推特，都向联邦第九巡回上诉法院提交了陈述书，支持反对旅行限令的诉讼。
这一诉讼很可能会最终递交到美国最高法院。
The U.S. Justice Department has filed its brief with the federal appeals court in San Francisco on behalf of reinstating President Donald Trump's travel ban from seven Muslim majority countries.
The 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals plans to start hearing oral arguments from both sides Tuesday.
The Justice Department's brief contends the ban is a "lawful exercise of the president's authority over the entry of aliens into the United States and the admission of refugees." It calls a federal judge's order suspending the ban an error and "vastly overbroad."
Along with U.S. attorneys, nearly 100 companies, two states and a group of Democrats that include former Secretaries of State John Kerry and Madeleine Albright have filed arguments against the ban.
The Democrats argue it was "ill-conceived, poorly implemented and ill-explained." "We view the order as one that ultimately undermines the national security of the United States rather than making us safer," they argued, in contrast to Trump's arguments that the ban would enhance national security.
In addition, 97 tech companies, including Silicon Valley giants Apple, Facebook, Google, Microsoft and Twitter, filed a legal brief late Sunday with the 9th Circuit, supporting the lawsuit against the travel ban.
The case is likely to end up before the U.S. Supreme Court.
