The Western Journal: Responding to a Reader: Here's How Illegals Ended Up with 'Due Process' Rights
The expansion of constitutional rights to illegal immigrants has largely stemmed from Supreme Court rulings, starting with cases like Yick Wo v. Hopkins in 1886, which established that non-citizens are entitled to due process protections. Subsequent decisions reinforced this principle, leading to the conclusion that non-citizens, including illegals, enjoy many of the same rights as citizens.
Critics argue that this judicial expansion has undermined the value of citizenship and created challenges in addressing illegal immigration effectively. The author posits that the courts could not have anticipated the current immigration crisis, which complicates enforcement efforts and raises questions about the implications of these rulings.

Recent judicial rulings have sparked criticism, particularly regarding decisions made by judges appointed by Obama and Biden.

A notable case involves Judge Indira Talwani, who ruled that illegal immigrants brought to the U.S. under the Biden administration must remain due to public interest claims. This decision raises concerns about judicial overreach and the separation of powers, as critics assert that determining public interest should be the role of elected officials, not judges.
