NEW from AILA on the Trump Administration's plans to train and arm agents at USCIS: "Their aim of driving people out of the country shows a shocking disregard for the value and contributions that immigrants make to America." bit.ly/41BPg0z

The Trump Administration has announced measures to gut longstanding pathways based on exceptional ability, national interest, & merit in favor of pay-to-play immigration. "This sends a signal to the world’s top talent that the U.S. is closing its doors." bit.ly/4nz1XBE

In a case that could redefine who gets to be American, the Administration’s argument on birthright citizenship ran headfirst into the text of the Fourteenth Amendment. "This executive order was constitutionally deficient the day it was signed." bit.ly/4bUVZqE
