My New Verfassungsblog Article Making “The Nondelegation Case Against Trump’s New Travel Ban”
Verfassungsblog just published my article “The Nondelegation Case Against Trump’s New Travel Ban.” This site is a prominent German academic forum devoted to analysis of public law issues. Here is an excerpt from the article:
Last week, President Donald Trump imposed a massive travel ban, barring nearly all immigration and other entry into the United States by citizens of twelve nations, and imposing severe restrictions on seven more. The twelve nations subjected to near-total bans are Afghanistan, Burma, Chad, the Republic of Congo, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Haiti, Iran, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Yemen. The other seven are Burundi, Cuba, Laos, Sierra Leone, Togo, Turkmenistan, and Venezuela.
As the American Immigration Council explains, barring nearly all migrants from these countries will significantly damage the US economy, and have negative humanitarian effects, as well. Migrants from many of these countries – including Afghanistan, Cuba, Iran, and Venezuela – are fleeing horrific poverty and oppression by communist, radical Islamist, and other authoritarian regimes. If Trump and the Republican Party truly cared about combating communism and radical Islamism, as they like to claim, they would not shut America’s doors to their victims.
