Sonia Pins and Buttons
Main Tag:
Description: The quote, "Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent," was written by U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor in her dissenting opinion on September 8, 2025. The dissent from Justice Sotomayor concerning immigration profiling tactics is based on the Fourth Amendment's protection against unreasonable searches and seizures. Sotomayor and her fellow liberal justices argue that the Supreme Court's September 2025 decision eroded this fundamental right by permitting federal agents to stop and detain individuals based on factors that amount to racial profiling.
