Questions presented

  1. Whether 8 U.S.C. 1225(b)(l)(B)(ii)—which au­ thorizes the government to detain aliens who are placed in expedited removal proceedings, but who then estab­ lish a credible fear of persecution based on a protected ground—violates the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment because it contains no provision authoriz­ ing bond hearings.

  2. Whether 8 U.S.C. 1252(f)(1) prohibits lower courts from granting classwide injunctions against the operation of 8 U.S.C. 1221-1232. (I)
