You’re still not safe from racial profiling on Greyhound buses if you’re a person of color.
that Customs and Border Protection last month issued a memo to agents telling them they couldn’t search buses along the border without the bus company’s consent, as required by the Constitution’s Fourth Amendment.
We do not “consent” or “allow” to searches by CBP of passengers of any age; we do not have a say in the matter. … To suggest we have lawful choice in the matter is tendentious and false. Now CBP says the company’s legal position—that the Fourth Amendment doesn’t apply on its buses and there’s nothing it can do to keep agents from searching its passengers—is false. According to a memo issued by outgoing Border Patrol Chief Carla Provost on Jan. 28: “When transportation checks occur on a bus at non-checkpoint locations, the agent must demonstrate that he or she gained access to the bus with the consent of the company’s owner or one of the company’s employees.
Greyhound’s communications specialist informed Slate that “[t]he company will not be providing any statements at this time.” Greyhound isin California by a U.S. citizen for allegedly allowing CBP to racially profile its passengers.
