Zone Origin Story

Within the 100-mile border enforcement zone — established under 8 US Code §?1357 of the 1952 Immigration and Nationality Act, the US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) are granted broad, quasi-legal authority to stop, search, and detain people without a warrant. 

These powers blatantly violate constitutional rights, especially the Fourth Amendment's protection against unreasonable searches and seizures. 

This zone encompasses two-thirds of the US population, covering every coastline, land border, and major city — from New York and Los Angeles to Miami and Seattle — including the entire state of Florida and most of New England. 

It has effectively turned vast regions of the country into surveillance zones, where constitutional rights are at the whim of masked agents.
