MY IMMIGRATION TAKEAWAYS FROM 2018

2018 Immigration Takeaways

  • Administration immigration policies mix extreme cruelty with stunning incompetence

  • Gross politicized mismanagement of Immigration Courts as more Judges = more backlog

    • Failure to protect asylum seekers, particularly women

    • Judges stripped of control over dockets

    • Pereira disaster — Bermudez–Cota

  • New Due Process Army ramps up

    • Big Law joins the fight in even larger numbers, contributing resources, innovation, and legal excellence

    • Record interest among practitioners, particularly newer lawyers, in learning the skills and strategies successfully to resist White Nationalism and xenophobia

  • Article III Courts generally stand up to Trump’s lawlessness

    • Exception Supremes in Travel Ban case
