[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]American Association of University Professors v. Rubio (D. Mass.) Has survived the government's motion to dismiss related to the 1st amendment (5th amendment claims are dismissed). This relates directly to the actions taken against foreign students and academics who have voiced pro-Palestine opinions. Contrary to what a lot of people seem to think, there are 1st amendment rights for non-citizens. Hard to grasp, I know. [/quote] “Survived the government’s motion to dismiss” is a low bar. Will be interesting to see what happens if/when we get a ruling on the merits. Seems pretty clear to me that holding will be that government can deport noncitizens for mere speech in some cases. For example, noncitizens burning the flag and shouting “death to America”? I’m confident that courts would rule that deportation is permissible. Only question is whether the courts impose any limits on this power.[/quote]
