Andrew Cuomo: We’re Suing Trump Because He’s Violated the Due Process Rights of Illegals

‘The basis of the lawsuit is very simple’
By Grabien Staff

RUSH EXCERPT:

CUOMO: "Sure. Thanks for having me, wolf. Go Buffalo. The basis of the lawsuit is very simple. It is a violation of the due process of the parents and of the children. Our federal constitution provide due process rights to citizens and to non-citizens, undocumented people. One of the fundamental rights is a parents’ right to care, custody and control of their child. That has been violated. Now, this executive order, I don’t think, does anything of legal significance. I think it’s more of a press release than a legal document. If you read it, it basically says unless they go to a court and get the court to change what’s called the flores decision, the flores settlement, which has been a 20 year long court battle, you can’t implement this. That’s why literally it’s just about the press and trying to slow down the press. They’ve just come full circle. What happened here was April 7th they announce the zero tolerance, they arrest the parent. When you arrest the parent, the question became what do you do with the child because you cannot by law, by the flores decision, put the child in a detention facility."
