April 14 The American Civil Liberties Union filed a third lawsuit Saturday over the Trump administration’s use of a wartime statute to deport migrants from Venezuela to El Salvador.
Brought in Federal District Court in Colorado, it follows similar legal challenges filed by the ACLU in Texas and New York on behalf of two men who allege they have been wrongly accused by the administration of being members of the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua.
The Colorado plaintiffs have only been identified in court papers by their initials, D.B.U. and R.M.M. and both a temporary restraining order and a writ of habeas corpus were filed for them by the ACLU.
