National Security Experts Urge Supreme Court to Recognize Threat of Sharia-Supremacism
Amicus Brief filed in Immigration Pause Case
WASHINGTON, D.C.— On August 17th, prominent national security experts filed a path-breaking friend of the court (amicus curaie) brief authored by the American Freedom Law Center (AFLC) on one of the most contentious and important public policy issues of the day: How do we stop importing jihadists?
In their amicus brief, former federal prosecutor Andrew C. McCarthy, Dr. Robert J. Shillman, founder, chairman and chief culture officer of Cognex Corporation, Adm. James “Ace” Lyons Jr., U.S. Navy (Ret.), former Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. Pacific Fleet, Lt. Gen. William G. Boykin, U.S. Army (Ret.) former Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence, Ambassador Henry F. Cooper, former director of the Strategic Defense Initiative Organization and former acting Assistant Secretary of Defense Frank J. Gaffney and his Center for Security Policy argued that President Trump’s executive order instituting a temporary immigration pause with respect to six failed or hostile states was fully constitutional and statutorily grounded.
