Congress Bars Detention Camps in Repeal of 1950 Act
The Senate repeals the Emergency Detention Act of 1950, prohibiting future presidential detention except under existing criminal laws. The bill, supported by Rep. Spark Matsunaga and Sen. Daniel Inouye, aims to prevent a repeat of wartime camps for Japanese-Americans, noting camps like Missoula and Florence were abandoned in 1957 after wartime review.
