Summary from Dean Kevin Johnson @ ImmigrationProf Blog:
Nolan Rappaport: Trump’s ‘death sentence’ for immigrant who followed the law merits private bill
Thursday, September 5, 2019
Kit Johnson has been blogging on the case of Maria Isabel Bueso, who at age 7 came to the United States for specialized health care for a life-threatening matter and now is threatened with removal — and possible death — by the Trump administration.
Nolan Rappaport on the Hill is more optimistic than Kit on the possibilities for a private bill allowing Bueso to gain lawful immigration status and remain in the United States. He writes, “In 30-some years as an immigration lawyer, I have not seen a more compelling justification for a private bill than the way the administration has treated Maria `Isabel’ Bueso.”

Sometimes Trump’s immigration policies bring folks together: in united opposition.
