Trump Officials Falsely Claim Citizens Must Carry Immigration Papers
Recent reports detail the detention of U.S. citizens by federal law enforcement agencies who lack proof of citizenship, a practice decried by civil rights advocates as a violation of constitutional rights. One such incident involved a Somali-born Minnesota man who was tackled and arrested despite presenting his REAL ID. This action is allegedly sanctioned by the Trump administration, with a top official falsely suggesting citizens must carry immigration documents. Critics point out that U.S. law does not require citizens to carry such documents.
