An open letter to the President & U.S. Congress

Trump administration defying Supreme Court order endangering constitutional rights

6 so far! Help us get to 10 signers!

The Trump administration's blatant disregard for the Supreme Court's order to facilitate the return of Kilmar Abrego Garcia from the notorious CECOT prison in El Salvador is a flagrant violation of the rule of law and the separation of powers enshrined in the Constitution. This defiance sets a dangerous precedent that undermines the authority of the judicial branch and threatens the fundamental rights and liberties of all Americans, citizens and non-citizens alike. By pretending to comply while actively refusing to follow the Court's directive, the administration is not only subverting the due process protections guaranteed by the Constitution but also asserting an alarming level of unchecked executive power. The implication that the executive branch can deport and imprison individuals, including American citizens, without legal consequence as long as it acts before a court can intervene is a chilling affront to our democratic principles. The evidence against Abrego Garcia's alleged gang affiliation is tenuous at best, and the acknowledgment of his wrongful deportation by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials further underscores the injustice of his continued detention. The administration's willingness to ignore these facts and deny him his constitutional rights sets a dangerous precedent that jeopardizes the civil liberties of all Americans. Upholding the rule of law and the separation of powers is essential to preserving the integrity of our democratic institutions and safeguarding the rights and freedoms that are the bedrock of our nation. The Trump administration's contempt for the Supreme Court's authority and the Constitution demands immediate and decisive action to ensure that no individual, regardless of their citizenship status, is subjected to such blatant disregard for their fundamental rights.
