Senator Blasts Ohio Judges for Claiming ‘Emergency’ Powers Can Stop ICE Deportations
by Warner Todd Huston 5 Mar 2025
Ohio Republican Senator Bernie Moreno is blasting a handful of judges in his state for claiming that “emergency” powers allow them to invalidate federal immigration laws and to prevent ICE from rounding up and deporting illegal aliens.
Moreno ripped these “rogue judges,” and one judge in particular, for claiming that they have the power to block ICE immigration enforcement activities in Ohio.
In his March 4 letter, the senator criticized Franklin County Judge Kim Brown and warned her that “no one is above the law,” but added, “And yet, you’re giving illegal aliens a pass.”
Moreno expressed his “sincere shock and disgust” at Judge Brown’s position that a county judge has the power to block federal immigration laws and called Brown and her colleagues “rogue judges.”
