I was very surprised to read that the United States Supreme Court had unanimously, yes unanimously upheld a federal law that forbids anyone from encouraging illegal aliens to remain in the United States.

In fact, the Supreme Court not only vacated the Ninth Circuit appeals court’s decision but criticized the judges of that court for “drastically” straying from judicial norms.

Who wrote the Supreme Courts' opinion? None other than Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, probably the courts most liberal justice on the court. She wrote:

“[T]he appeals panel departed so drastically from the principle of party presentation as to constitute an abuse of discretion…a court is not hidebound by the precise arguments of counsel, but the Ninth Circuit’s radical transformation of this case goes well beyond the pale.”

he lawsuit started routinely enough. Evelyn Sineneng-Smith was an immigration consultant in California. She presumptively attempted to assist her clients in applying for a "labor certification" that (at a time in the past) would permit certain aliens in the United States to obtain the status of lawful permanent residents. Here, however, Sineneng-Smith charged her clients for advice that would necessarily be ineffectual: she "knew her clients did not meet the application-filing deadline; hence, their applications could not put them on a path to lawful residence." Notwithstanding, she collected $3.3 million from her clients for these untoward services.

In turn, she was charged with violating 8 U.S.C. § 1324, which makes it illegal to "encourag[e] or induc[e] an alien to come to, enter, or reside in the United States, knowing or in reckless disregard of the fact that such coming to, entry, or residence is or will be in violation of law." The penalty is enhanced if the crime is "done for the purpose of commercial advantage or private financial gain." She was convicted.
