State Departments Broad Passport Authority Challenged
Federal Court heard a test case brought by the American Civil Liberties Union challenging the State Department’s authority to deny or revoke passports. The suit seeks standards for issuing and denying passports and hearings, and asks Congress to require mandates except for specific reasons. Anne Bauer, a naturalized citizen who worked in France as a writer, claims her passport cancellation deprived her of livelihood and constitutional rights after entering the United States from Germany in 1938.
