Immigration Law Professors File Brief in Travel Ban Case in Supreme Court
Law professors Peter Margulies and Shoba Wadia, along with WilmerHale, filed an amici curiae brief on behalf of a group of immigration law professors in the travel ban case, Trump v. Hawaii, pending in the U.S. Supreme Court.
Peter and Shoba preview the brief in a post on The Hill:
“Our brief narrates the history of the Immigration and Nationality Act, a statute that has been compared second in complexity to the United States tax code and contains Congress’s vision for who should be admitted into the United States, the reasons a person may be excludable or deportable from the United States, and the terms under which a person may seek a waiver or reprieve from deportation. While much of the attention in the travel ban cases have focused on the ban’s relationship to the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment, our brief shows the clash between the travel ban and Congress’s framework.”
