NYT: ICE and Federal Agents are above the law. This is why! 《紐約時報》評論:移民執法局與聯邦探員凌駕法律之上!原因在此
The recent ICE killing of Renee Good in Minneapolis can be the impetus for finally closing a gaping hole in our constitutional protections, write Erwin Chemerinsky, the dean of @berkeleylaw, and Burt Neuborne, a professor emeritus at @nyulaw. While federal officials can be held criminally liable for their actions, civil suits against them often struggle to move forward because of a hole in federal law. Congress can — and should — take action by creating a Renee Good Civil Rights Act, Erwin and Burt write.
近日,移民執法局在明尼阿波利斯市導致蕾妮·古德死亡的事件,可能成為推動修補憲法保護體系重大漏洞的契機。@berkeleylaw 法學院院長埃爾溫·切梅林斯基與@nyulaw 榮譽教授伯特·紐伯恩撰文指出:雖然聯邦官員可能因其行為承擔刑事責任,但針對他們的民事訴訟常因聯邦法律漏洞而難以推進。兩位法學專家強調,國會能夠且應該採取行動——制定《蕾妮·古德民權法案》以完善司法救濟途徑。
