The lawsuit aims to reflect the shooting of internal control offices within African weapons
A variety of invitation groups filed a lawsuit on Thursday aimed at preventing the Ministry of Internal Security from closing the internal control divisions permanently after the Trump administration launched critical employees, which led to the suspension of operations.
The lawsuit was filed in New York and brought by Robert F. Kennedy human rights, along with two groups for immigration rights. It seeks to preserve some of the main handrails within the agency, all of which were established by Congress, which help discover human rights and prevent its officers.
The lawsuit asked the court to restore the Civil Rights and Civil Liberties Office to the status quo before President Trump began interruption of oversight and accountability jobs throughout the federal government. It also seeks to restore the offices of the Secretary of Grievances, inspecting detention facilities and addressing complaints related to visa applications.
The Trump administration said that the demobilization of workers in the Ministry of Internal Security and other places is part of the comprehensive effort to reduce the bureaucratic repetition. A ministry spokeswoman, Tricia McLeulin, said at the time that the demobilization of workers was made in the name of efficiency.
She said: “These offices have hindered the application of immigration by adding bureaucratic obstacles and undermining the mission of the Ministry of National Security.” “Instead of supporting law enforcement efforts, it often acts as internal opponents that slow down operations.”
However, in the complaint submitted on Thursday, the groups argued that the Trump administration had been particularly concerned with removing restrictions and guarantees within the immigration application.
Cite March message Through two senior Democrats in the Senate, they warn that offices are required to work under law, Congress approved the establishment of the Ministry of Internal Security in 2002. It has sparked similar warnings of the efforts made to close the offices effectively by cutting their employees to the naked minimum, will open the door to dangerous violations in detention facilities and remove a decisive channel for the public with the office.
They wrote: “The decision to eliminate the CRCL office or make major discounts in CRCL employees will weaken the ability of DHS to comply with legal requirements and protect civil rights and civil freedoms of the American people,” referring to the Civil Rights and Civil Liberties Office. “If you move forward, your actions will be in a direct conflict with the intention of Congress.”
In addition to behaving as an internal verification of immigration enforcement practices, offices also serve a set of administrative jobs, which the lawsuit said is at risk of giving up.
The complaint indicates reports from legal aid groups that detainees with stomach cancer or HIV were unable to receive medical attention while keeping it. She said that applicants to obtain visas, green cards and work permits were unable to verify their request after the discounts of the office were reduced by more than 97 percent.
She asked the court to reflect the layoffs of collective workers inside the three offices and announce attempts to impeding their illegal operations.
The lawsuit reflects the other who sought to restore a degree of internal accountability through other agencies, after Mr. Trump moved to eliminate a variety of offices that carry this role historically.
Mr. Trump has chaired the launch of more than dozens of general inspectors, as well as heads of other accountability offices such as the Warmwood Systems Protection Council. He has also reduced civil rights offices and replaced them in other agencies, such as the Ministry of Education, on a large scale, redefining their traditional mandate and recruiting them in its efforts to reduce diversity initiatives and decline in transgender rights.
