Immigrants stood in long lines in San Francisco, packed the immigration court in Arlington, Va., and battled traffic in Miami before 2 court officials turned them away. Similar confusion erupted on Oct. 31, when hundreds of immigrants turned up for court nationwide and were told they did not have hearings scheduled. Immigration lawyers said the "fake dates" were issued by the Trump administration after a June U.S. Supreme Court ruling that said all notices to appear in immigration court must include a date, time and location. The Department of Homeland Security's border and immigration agencies — which routinely give hearing notices to immigrants — began issuing notices with dates and locations provided by the Justice Department's immigration courts, officials said. DHS is supposed to also file the notices with the courts, and immigrants should then receive written notices in the mail once their real hearings are scheduled. But in hundreds of cases, lawyers and officials said, DHS never filed formal charges, so the hearings were never scheduled — adding to the confusion in a court system that faces a historic backlog of more than 800,000 cases. The American Immigration Lawyers Association said it received reports this week of more than 1,000 incorrect dates being issued to immigrants in Arlington, Atlanta, Dallas, Miami, Omaha, San Diego and San Francisco. Hearings were also scheduled in Buffalo and Chicago, but those courts were shuttered because of bad weather. The episode renewed calls for the courts, which are run by the Executive Office for Immigration Review, to be separated from the Justice Department. EOIR spokeswoman Kathryn Mattingly issued a statement saying that DHS now has access to the court's electronic case-scheduling system and that "EOIR does not expect any further recurrence of this type of situation." The office said the recent, record-long partial government shutdown was the reason some cases ostensibly assigned for Thursday were never scheduled. In other cases, it said, DHS did not file the proper charges in time. Immigration and Customs Enforcement spokeswoman Jennifer Elzea attributed filing delays largely to the government shutdown and said, "All appropriate parties are working together to resolve this issue going forward." Courts turn away hundreds of immigrants, blame shutdown Washington Post [1/31/2019 5:35 PM, AP, Jennifer Kay and Adriana Gomez Licon] reports that the already backlogged immigration courts faced more hurdles Thursday when hundreds of immigrants arrived with government-issued notices to appear in court for hearings that were never scheduled. U.S. immigration officials blamed the government shutdown and the extreme winter weather for the confusion about immigration court hearings. The part of the Justice Department overseeing immigration courts said some immigrants with notices to appear Thursday would not be able to proceed with those hearings. In Miami, immigrants from Honduras and Guatemala who recently requested asylum in the United States arrived to a glass downtown court building only to be turned away by court personnel. They were told they were not scheduled to appear, contrary to what their government-issued document said. Similar backlogs have occurred nationwide since a recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling said that under the law notices given for immigrants to appear in court need to include a time and date. Before that June ruling, the Department of Homeland Security would issue undated notices, and the Executive Office for Immigration Review would set the hearings. In an emailed statement, the [Executive Office for] Immigration Review office said the shutdown prevented immigration courts from issuing new hearing notices. Weather-related

  • Why the Legal Strategy of Exploiting Immigrant Families Should Worry Us All
    \\jciprod01\productn\H\HLP\14-1\HLP101.txt unknown Seq: 1 30-JAN-20 10:17 Why the Legal Strategy of Exploiting Immigrant Families Should Worry Us All Jamie R. Abrams* This article applies a family law lens to explore the systemic and traumatic effects of modern laws and policies on immigrant families. A family law lens widens the scope of individuals harmed by recent immigration laws and policies to show why all families are affected and harmed by shifts in state power, state action, and state rhetoric. The family law lens reveals a worrisome shift in intentionality that has moved the state from a by- stander to family-based immigration trauma to an incendiary agent perpetrating family trauma. Modern immigration laws and policies are deploying legal and political strategies that intentionally sever the parent-child relationship and demonize immigrant families. The family law lens brings into focus how the state is acting under the parens patriae power, which positions the state as the “parent of the nation.” For the state to intervene using its parens patriae power to perpetrate the exact kinds of harms that would be con- sidered abusive if deployed by a parent, suggests a deep dissonant injustice in the use of state power in certain families. This shift in intentionality exacerbates longstanding dif- ferences in government family interventions by race, class, and immigration status. Laws and policies that exploit the hardships of families as political pressure should worry all families under the law because we entrust the state to intervene to protect fami- lies. These political strategies threaten the constitutional norms that are the foundation of modern family law.

  • August 11, 2021 Dear Chairman Mcdaniel: We Are Proud to Present
    August 11, 2021 Dear Chairman McDaniel: We are proud to present to you the Report of the Temporary Committee on Election Integrity (“Committee”). We are both honored that you entrusted us to lead this crucial initiative. Over the past six months, the Committee and subcommittees met regularly to review our election processes and the Republican Party’s role within them. We consulted numerous experts, tasked committee members with obtaining feedback from their states, conducted independent research, and deliberated over countless hours to develop this report. We hope our work on the Committee adds another chapter in our proud record as America’s party of voting rights and trustworthy elections. The Committee’s work can be broken down into three main functions. One, we wanted to learn from the past, so a post-mortem of the 2020 election was needed to ensure we could digest the unprecedented challenges and changes to strategize for the future. Two, we studied best policies and practices for election administration in order to make sound recommendations for state legislatures and policymakers. Third, we studied and made recommendations for the RNC’s and state parties’ role in protecting and promoting election transparency and voter integrity. We also want to ensure we recognize properly the work of the 24 Committee members who gave countless hours of their time and who made this report possible. We particularly want to thank our subcommittee chairs Jane Brady, Mark Kahrs, Debra Lamm, and Jason Thompson for their hard work drilling down into key topics. The subcommittees’ work provides a treasure trove of useful and valuable information that the RNC can utilize moving forward.
