Query

[Volokh, Eugene]

    I believe nonresident aliens are categorically exempt from the
draft, unless I'm mistaken.  I'd guess that certain treaties also
provide citizens of the contracting countries treaty rights that
citizens of the U.S. do not possess.  I'd also love to hear what tax
scholars on this list have to say on whether foreign citizens ever get
preferential tax treatment under U.S. law compared to U.S. citizens.

Has there ever been a law granting aliens greater protections than U.S.
citizens?
