Washington v. Sessions

Washington v. Sessions was a legal case where the state of Washington challenged the federal government’s effort to identify and deport immigrants with criminal convictions. Washington argued that the federal government’s rules for deporting certain non-citizens were too broad and unfairly targeted lawful residents who committed minor offenses. The case focused on balancing federal immigration enforcement with state authority and individual rights. Ultimately, the courts examined whether federal policies aligned with constitutional protections and state interests, impacting how immigration laws are implemented across the country.
