Uphold Habeas Corpus
To: Justices Court
From: A verified voter in Lompoc, CA
May 9
I write as a concerned American citizen urging this Court to stand firm in defense of habeas corpus—the most fundamental legal safeguard of individual liberty in our Constitution.
Any attempt by the Executive Branch to suspend this right outside of a clear and direct rebellion or invasion is a grave threat to the rule of law. The public is watching closely, not only with alarm, but with hope that this Court will not allow fear or politics to erode rights protected since the founding of our republic.
This moment is not just about immigration or policy—it is about whether any person in the United States can be detained without due process. The stakes are existential.
I implore you to uphold your oath, reject any effort to weaken habeas corpus, and reaffirm that in the United States of America, no one is above the Constitution
