马来西亚律师公会呼吁希盟政府兑现竞选宣言，尽快废除《1948年煽动法令》、《2012 年国家安全罪行（ 特別措施） 法令》（SOSMA）、《2013年防范罪案法令》（POCA），以及《2015年反恐法令》等压迫性恶法。 该公会主席乔治瓦鲁格斯律师指出，上述四大恶法允许执法者未审先扣和豁免司法审查（ouster clause）条款，形同停留在殖民时期。 他认为，现有法令已经足够应付犯罪和恐怖主义的威胁。如果觉得不足，理应修改现有法令，或草拟符合法治的新法。 他也提及过去一些法令在没有经过适当辩论或测试，就匆匆在国会通过，《2018假新闻法令》就是一例，它的内容、意图和影响都有疑问和缺陷。 马内政部长吁保留恶法 早前，马内政部长募尤丁宣布该国政府将保留SOSMA和POCA法令，指出二法若废除，恐怖分子和罪犯可恣意威胁国家安全。 律师公会对此发文抨击，指希盟竞选宣言承诺废除上述严厉条例，表示“政府应尊重法治”，“不应享有绝对自主权（carte blanche），剥夺人民在宪法享有的权利和公民自由。” 律师公会指出，保留二法形同背叛人民，SOSMA和POCA过去也曾多次遭滥用而恶名昭彰，也有可能被政府滥用。
