Over the past month, the Trump administration has begun to implement a policy that has reportedly led to the forced separation of hundreds of undocumented immigrant parents from their children after theyve arrived together at the U.S. border. This followed reports that a pilot program of such a policy had been undertaken between July and November 2017. Democrats have argued that this apparent practice is cruel, heartless, and betrays our nations deepest values. The ACLU, meanwhile, has argued in court on behalf of separated immigrant families that such a practice would beand isblatantly unconstitutional.
On Wednesday, Dana Sabraw, a federal district court judge in California, issued a stinging rebuke to the governments request to dismiss the ACLUs claim under the due process clause of the Fifth Amendment. He also indicated in his opinion that the government would likely be found to be in violation of the due process rights of these immigrant families. Judge Sabraw resoundingly rejected the argument that the Due Process clause of the Fifth Amendment had not been violated. (Sabraw, a George W. Bush appointee, at the same time accepted the governments motion to dismiss the ACLUs statutory grounds arguments.)
