Congress, Civil Liberties, And The War On Terrorism, Neal Devins
Congress, Civil Liberties, And The War On Terrorism, Neal Devins
William & Mary Bill of Rights Journal
In exercising his war-making powers, the President has historically pursued war-related initiatives that implicate civil liberties. Meanwhile, the Congress, with little incentive to resist these initiatives, has played a steadily declining role in warmaking. In this Essay, Professor Devins examines this dynamic, and argues that with Congress largely standing on the sidelines as the President leads the nation in war, it is the American public that has become the principal check on the powers of the President in wartime.
