A federal judge ruled that the Terrorist Screening Database violates the constitutional rights of American citizens who are on it, deciding in favor of 23 citizens who sued after being placed on the watchlist
The ruling from Judge Anthony Trenga in the Eastern District of Virginia calls into question federal authorities' practice of using the list to support decisions on people's ability to travel.Trenga found the watchlist deprived the citizens of due process, which is guaranteed by the Constitution."The general right of free movement is a long recognized, fundamental liberty," Trenga wrote.
Accordingly, the Court concludes that the risk of erroneous deprivation of Plaintiff's travel-related and reputational liberty interests is high, and the currently existing procedural safeguards are not sufficient to address that risk."Trenga stopped short of telling the federal government what to do next. Instead, he asked both sides to argue what should happen next over the next two months.
