John, it’s Maggie Hassan with an important update:
In case you missed it, yesterday I went head to head with Kristi Noem in a Senate hearing.
When I asked Noem, Donald Trump’s Secretary of Homeland Security, to define habeas corpus — a basic legal principle — she couldn’t.
Let me make this clear: Habeas corpus isn’t just a Latin phrase — it’s a critical protection that requires the government to bring someone they are detaining before a court and explain the legal basis for arresting them.
Right now, it’s a fundamental freedom that the Trump administration is considering stripping away.
We MUST band together to stand up for the rule of law and oppose the Trump administration’s unconstitutional actions.
If you can, please chip in to help Kirsten Gillibrand and Democrats like me continue to take on the GOP and call out their human rights abuses:
