Justice Gorsuch On the Importance of Civil Liberties & the Dangers of Emergency Powers

Today on Legalese, we are going to be looking at a statement put out by Associate Justice Neil Gorsuch as part of the Court's procedural decision in the recent case of Arizona v Mayorkas.

Trying to keep these emergency powers in place indefinitely because of a new imagined crisis that they were never meant to apply to.
