A Kavanaugh stop is a law enforcement practice in the United States in which federal agents can stop and briefly detain a person based on their perceived ethnicity, spoken language, or occupation in consideration with other factors. Kavanaugh stops originated in a September 2025 Supreme Court concurrence by Justice Brett Kavanaugh in Noem v. Vasquez Perdomo.
