Preface
Just when we thought that the deluge of new national security law developments might slow after last year’s flood, it’s déjà vu all over again. We know now to be strapped in and prepared to absorb, digest, and reproduce in teachable ways the continuing wave of notable changes during and arising from the Trump administration.
As this Supplement goes to press, for example, multiple federal courts are wrestling with the Administration’s efforts to build a border wall, prompting us to take a deep dive into appropriations law, alongside an analysis of the President’s statutory and constitutional emergency authorities. The Ninth Circuit’s July 2019 decision denying the government’s application to stay the district court’s injunction in Sierra Club v. Trump, excerpted here, is the perfect vehicle to do this. Other changes, also still underway at this writing, go to the very heart of our democratic government of separated powers. Investigations of Russian interference in the 2016 elections and beyond have generated an unprecedented number of clashes between the Executive and House of Representatives over access to information, with important implications for national security. As we point out in this Supplement, there are few precedents, and the stakes are remarkably high. In the meantime, evidence of Russian efforts to intrude on critical U.S. infrastructure and of possible tit-for-tat U.S. intrusions on Russian infrastructure has presented new challenges in the evolving field of cyber security law, documented here. A new Department of Defense Cyber Strategy proclaims for the first time that the U.S. will “defend forward to disrupt or halt malicious cyber activity at its source,” raising fresh questions about the use of cyber tools short of armed conflict. And the 2019 NDAA authorizes the “National Command Authority” to respond to ongoing attacks on the United States in cyberspace from China, Russia, North Korea, or Iran by taking “appropriate and proportional action in foreign cyberspace to disrupt, defeat, and deter such attacks.” These new authorities may, incidentally, curtail congressional oversight of such secret operations. U.S. armed forces continue to fight in Afghanistan and to confront ISIS and spin-off terrorists in several locations in Africa and the Middle East without explicit legal authority. Congress, meanwhile, has continued fitful — and, to date, unsuccessful — efforts to repeal or modify the 2001 AUMF, even while the Trump administration seems poised to go to war with Iran in the wake of a drone shoot-down and
Preface

mining of commercial shipping in the Persian Gulf. These developments are also analyzed in this Supplement. Closer to home, unabated screening and detentions at the borders continue to generate litigation and a broad range of new case law on habeas corpus and immigration. In addition, the ongoing chaos of the Guantánamo military commissions has generated new case law and new issues, even as the Administration persists in relying on these tribunals to prosecute some accused terrorists. And the Guantánamo detainees continue to generate important new rulings in their habeas cases, as well, including a major June 2019 ruling on the applicability of the Fifth Amendment’s Due Process Clause in such cases.
We have tried to keep up with these and many other developments without overly complicating the use of the core casebooks. Achieving that practical goal necessarily requires discriminating selection and presentation. As in past supplements, we have carefully edited the principal new cases and supplied a minimum of new Notes and Questions, trusting our enterprising adopters to use (and embellish) them as they feel best fits their teaching goals.
This Supplement serves two closely related casebooks: National Security Law (6th ed.) and Counterterrorism Law (3d ed.). This Preface is followed immediately by two Teacher=s Guides, one for each book, which indicate the placement of supplemental materials within each casebook (and are intended to make it easier for adopters to match Supplement entries to their syllabi). Each entry in the Supplement is accompanied by a reference to one or both casebooks. For example, the new materials on the Trump administration travel bans appear with this instruction: [NSL p. 826, CTL p. 454. Insert after Note 4.] ANSL@ refers to National Security Law (6th ed.), and ACTL@ to Counterterrorism Law (3d ed.).
As important new developments arise during the coming year, we will continue to document them by posting edited new materials on the websites for the two casebooks — supplements to this Supplement — from which they may be downloaded by teachers and shared with students. The website for National Security Law (6th ed.) may be found at http://www.aspenlawschool.com/books/Dycus_NatSec/default.asp; the website for Counterterrorism Law (3d ed.) may be found at http://www.aspenlawschool.com/books/Dycus_CounterTerror/ default.asp. For each book, log in with a validated professor account for access to our materials.
The accumulation of developments since our last edition accounts for our lengthening Supplement. But it also justifies a seventh edition of the
Preface
xvii
NSL book, and a fourth edition of the CTL book, both of which are forthcoming in 2020. These new editions are well underway, and they will be available in plenty of time for fall 2020 adoptions.
As always, we are extremely grateful to our adopters, fellow members of the National Security Law Section of the Association of American Law Schools, fellow members of the Editorial Board of the Journal of National Security Law & Policy, fellow casebook authors (our collaborators in building the field), members of the ABA Standing Committee on Law and National Security, and our many friends in the national security community. We also wish to thank our research assistants. Finally, we wish to express our gratitude to John Devins and Carol McGeehan, our long-time editors and friends, for their longstanding encouragement and support.
