No legal expert, but I believe you have to show that you have some personal damage to sue over it. See many suits like this dismissed on standing.

I wondered about that. However, it seems odd that you would have to wait for your family member to be killed before you could take them to task on it. I am granted certain protections under the US Constitution, couldn't I argue that the new law directly affected me by taking away a protection that I previously had? I no longer have the peace of mind that my government can't kill me without due process.
