(3) Article I, Section 9, Clause 2 of the Constitution provides that the privilege of the writ of habeas corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in cases of rebellion or invasion the public safety may require it.
(4) The First Amendment provides that the Congress of the United States shall make no law prohibiting the right of the people to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
(5) The Fourth Amendment provides that the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated.
(6) The Fifth Amendment provides that the people have a right to be free from deprivation of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.
(7) The Sixth Amendment provides that the people have a right in criminal prosecutions to enjoy a speedy trial by an impartial jury in the state and district where the crime shall have been committed; to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation; to confront witnesses; and to counsel.
(8) The Fourteenth Amendment provides that the people are to be free from deprivation of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.
SECTION 2. Chapter 1, Title 8 of the 1976 Code is amended by adding:
"Section 8-1-15. No agency of the State, officer, or employee of this State, solely on official state duty, may engage in an activity that aids an agency of the armed forces of the United States in execution of 50 U.S.C. 1541, as provided by the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012, or any subsequent provision of this law in the detainment of any citizen of the United States in violation of Section 3, Article I and Section 14, Article I of the South Carolina Constitution."
