The latest DOJ Job Announcement for Appellate Immigration Judges (“BIA Members”) contains some “head scratchers:”
https://www.usajobs.gov/GetJob/ViewDetails/511705900#
- 6 vacancies;
- In 4 locations;
- All in Arizona.
NOTE: The Chairman, Vice Chair, and the other 13 Board Members/Appellate Immigration Judges are located in Falls Church, VA, along with all of the BIA’s existing staff.
*****************************************
At one time, this might have been one of the “premier” jobs in the DOJ. But, with “One-Judge Panels,” Performance Quotas, Sessions setting all the important precedents, and a constant stream of reversals and criticisms from the Article III’s for “haste makes waste” decision-making, successful candidates had better bring their “DEPORT” rubber stamps with them.
