U(D54G1D)y+$!/!?!=!/ WASHINGTON — The Su- preme Court cleared the way on Monday for President Trump to prohibit the entry of some people into the United States from coun- tries he deems dangerous, but the justices imposed strict limits on Mr. Trump’s travel ban while they examine the scope of presidential power over the border. Mr. Trump quickly hailed the court’s decision to hear argu- ments on the travel ban in Octo- ber, saying — in a formal White House statement, not a tweet — that the justices’ temporary lifting of some of the legal roadblocks to his ban was a “clear victory” for national security. “As president, I cannot allow people into our country who want to do us harm,” Mr. Trump wrote, calling his efforts to limit entry into the country a “suspension” in- stead of a ban. “I want people who can love the United States and all of its citizens, and who will be hardworking and productive.” He later tweeted: “Very grate- ful for the 9-O decision from the U. S. Supreme Court. We must keep America SAFE!” But those challenging the travel ban said the court’s opinion would protect the vast majority of people seeking to enter the United States to visit a relative, accept a job, at- tend a university or deliver a speech. The court said the ban could not be imposed on anyone who had “a credible claim of a bona fide relationship with a per- son or entity in the United States.” Karen Tumlin, legal director of the National Immigration Law Center, said advocates for refugees and other immigrants would urge the justices this fall to President Trump called Monday’s Supreme Court decision a “clear victory” for national security.

Two Republicans, Senators Su- san Collins of Maine and Rand Paul of Kentucky, said Monday that they would vote against even debating the health care bill, join- ing Senator Dean Heller of Neva- da, who made the same pledge on Friday. Senator Ron Johnson of Wisconsin hinted that he, too, would probably oppose taking up the bill on a procedural vote ex- pected as early as Tuesday, mean- ing a collapse could be imminent. “It’s worse to pass a bad bill than pass no bill,” Mr. Paul told reporters. Ms. Collins wrote on Twitter on Monday evening that she wanted to work with her colleagues from both parties to fix flaws in the Af- fordable Care Act, but that the budget office’s report showed that the “Senate bill won’t do it.” The report left Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, the ma- jority leader, with the unenviable choices of changing senators’ stated positions, withdrawing the bill from consideration while he renegotiates, or letting it go down to defeat — a remarkable conclu- sion to the Republicans’ seven- year push to repeal President Barack Obama’s signature do- mestic achievement. But the budget office put Re- publicans in an untenable posi- tion. It found that next year, 15 mil- lion more people would be unin- sured compared with current law. Premiums and out-of-pocket ex- penses could shoot skyward for some low-income people and for people nearing retirement, it said. The legislation would decrease federal deficits by a total of $321 billion over a decade, the budget office said. Mr. McConnell, the chief author of the bill, wanted the Senate to approve it before a planned recess for the Fourth of July, but that looks increasingly doubtful. Mis- givings in the Republican confer- ence extend beyond just a few of the most moderate and conserva- tive members, and Mr. McConnell can lose only two Republicans. At least some of Ms. Collins’s concerns could be shared by Sena- tors Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia, whose rural states would face effects similar to those in Maine. “If you were on the fence, you were looking at this as a political vote, this C.B.O. score didn’t help you,” said Senator Lindsey Gra- ham, Republican of South Car- olina. “So I think it’s going to be harder to get to 50, not easier.” He added, “I don’t know, if you delayed it for six weeks, if any- thing changes.” Under the bill, the budget office said, subsidies to help people buy health insurance would be “sub- Continued on Page A10 OFFICIAL ESTIMATE IMPERILS SUPPORT FOR HEALTH BILL Forecast of 22 Million More Uninsured — Key Republicans Plan to Vote No By THOMAS KAPLAN and ROBERT PEAR Senator Susan Collins said she would not vote for the bill.
