Friend, we’re monitoring a dangerous development:

Last week, Stephen Miller confirmed the Trump administration is considering suspending habeas corpus — the right of anyone to challenge their detention in court — for immigrants.

If they continue with this plan, many immigrants could be jailed indefinitely — without the opportunity to have a hearing or see a judge. This would erase one of the most fundamental rights in our legal system, setting a dangerous precedent the government could use to abuse the rights of every single person in the country. It’s an unconstitutional assault on our democracy.

Friend, we have a very clear message for Stephen Miller, Donald Trump, and everyone in the administration: Suspend habeas corpus and we will fight and defeat you in court.

We’re watching this closely, and we’ll be ready to act.
