  • Immigrant Policy Project Report on State Immigration Laws, 2020
    IMMIGRATION Immigrant Policy Project Report on State Immigration Laws, 2020 FEBRUARY | 2021 Report on State Immigration Laws, 2020 BY ANN MORSE The National Conference of State Legislatures is the bipartisan organization dedicated to serving the lawmakers and staffs of the nation’s 50 states, its commonwealths and territories. NCSL provides research, technical assistance and opportunities for policymakers to exchange ideas on the most pressing state issues, and is an effective and respected advocate for the interests of the states in the American federal system. Its objectives are: • Improve the quality and effectiveness of state legislatures. • Promote policy innovation and communication among state legislatures. • Ensure state legislatures a strong, cohesive voice in the federal system. The conference operates from offices in Denver, Colorado and Washington, D.C. NATIONAL CONFERENCE OF STATE LEGISLATURES © 2020 iii NATIONAL CONFERENCE OF STATE LEGISLATURES Many state legislatures took a break from the topic of immigration in 2020 as the pandemic and econom- ic crises created new priorities for legislative action. Exclusion of immigrant families and children from fed- eral COVID-19 and economic stimulus laws, however, led several states to respond with new state funding and community outreach. Examples include health care for immigrant seniors, tenant protections and extension of eligibility for pub- lic benefit during the pandemic. States also continued working on professional licenses for immigrants, re- gardless of immigration status. Virginia, with new Democratic majorities, became the latest state to enact driving privilege cards and in-state tuition rates for unauthorized immigrants and the creation of an Office for New Americans.

    1 MMMMMM MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER 281 August 2019 1 2 MMMMMM MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER 281 August 2019 Operation Pedestal – Santa marija convoy Operation Pedestal (referenced in Italian sources as the Battaglia di Mezzo Agosto) was a British operation to get desperately needed supplies to the island of Malta in August 1942, during the Second World War. Malta was the base from which surface ships, submarines and aircraft attacked Axis convoys carrying supplies to the Italian and German armies in North Africa. From 1940 to 1942, Malta was under siege, blockaded by Axis air and naval forces. To sustain Malta, the United Kingdom had to get convoys through at all costs. Despite serious losses, just enough supplies were delivered for Malta to continue resistance, although it ceased to be an effective offensive base for much of 1942. The most crucial supply was fuel delivered by the SS Ohio, an American-built tanker with a British crew. The operation officially started on 3 August 1942 and the convoy sailed through the Strait of Gibraltar on the night of 9/10 August. The convoy is also known as the Battle of Mid-August in Italy and as the Konvoj ta' Santa Marija in Malta; the arrival of the last ships of the convoy on 15 August 1942, coincided with the Feast of the Assumption (Santa Marija). The name Santa Marija Convoy or Sta Marija Convoy is still used and the day's public holiday and celebrations, in part, honour the arrival of the convoy. The attempt to run fifty ships past bombers, E-boats, minefields and submarines has gone down in military history as one of the most important British strategic victories of the Second World War.
