The US Constitution states that the writ of habea corpus may be suspended by Congress only in times of war, invasion, or national emergency.

"The privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in Cases of Rebellion or Invasion the public Safety may require it." - Article I, Section 9, Clause 2, U.S. Constitution This means that only in time of an active rebellion or foreign invasion may it be suspended, and, even then, the President's action is subject to Supreme Court review.

I'm assuming you're referring to Article One, Section 9, Clause 2 of the US Constitution, which reads, "The privilege of the writ of habeas corpus shall not be suspended, unless when in cases of rebellion or invasion the public safety may require it."Habeas Corpus, Latin for "You shall have the body" refers to the right of citizens to know what crime they are being accused of. A writ of Habeas is basically a statement by the government of why a citizen is being held by the government. The right to know why you have been imprisoned is actually the only right enshrined in the main body of the Constitution itself, not granted by the Bill of Rights or the later Amendments.The writ has been suspended several times during American history; most well-known of these was during the Civil War. Writs were also suspended during Reconstruction, in Hawaii during the Second World War, and in the case of German sabatuers caught in New York (ex parte Quirin case)
Habeas corpus is the right of "innocent until proven guilty". At times, the safety of a country may require the suspension of this "right" - for example during times of rebellion, where a person may be imprisoned without proving them "guilty" first. This suspension of habeas corpus is usually deemed to "improve the safety of a country" during times of civil disobedience. For example, during the French Revolution, habeas corpus was suspended.
