Scott Roehm, director of global policy and advocacy, published this explainer together with Tess Bridgeman, co-editor in chief at Just Security, and Rebecca Ingber, law professor at Cardozo Law School. The explainer provides information about a number of authorities being used by the Trump administration. The authors write, “Our goal with this explainer is to unpack them in one place for policymakers, judges, journalists, practitioners, and others seeking to navigate these concepts. We seek to foster understanding of what these authorities are (and aren’t) intended for, what they do (and don’t do) in practice, how (if at all) they are related, and why it is crucial to maintain a bright line between when wartime authorities apply and when they do not.”
