State of Tennessee Files Constitutional Challenge to Refugee Resettlement Program
The Thomas More Law Center filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of the Tennessee General Assembly and the State of Tennessee in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Tennessee on Monday challenging the federal refugee resettlement program for violating the state’s sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
As a national non-profit public interest law firm, the Thomas More Law Center, based in Ann Arbor, Michigan will represent Tennessee without charge.
The lawsuit seeks to define Tennessee’s rights in light of the forced expenditure of state funds in support of a federal program (forced federal refugee relocation program) from which the state has formally withdrawn.
