DOJ files complaint against Minnesota judges over immigration remarks
Original: DOJ files complaint against Minn. judges for criticizing immigration surge
The Department of Justice has filed a complaint against Minnesota judges who publicly criticized the surge in immigration, according to the Washington Post. The move raises questions about the limits of judicial speech and the federal government's role in disciplining state judges. Commentators are likely to debate whether the complaint targets legitimate judicial conduct or chills judges' ability to speak on policy matters.
Why now: The federal government disciplining judges for political speech is an unusual escalation likely to fuel debate over judicial independence and immigration.
