Biden’s immigration plan has serious problems Nolan Rappaport, opinion contributor

Update, July 30, 11:58 am:
Whenever I use the word "fascist" in writing about Donald Trump, I notice that my readership drops way down. But is any other word appropriate? The latest new is that Trump wants to "delay"...Last edited by ImmigrationLawBlogs; 07-30-2020, 10:58 AM. -

Boiled down to the essentials, there is no difference at all on the Trump administration's claim that DACA was illegal as mentioned in Chief Justice Roberts' opinion, and Nolan's argument that the March 13 ICE directive allowing foreign students to take... -
There might be another way of describing Nolan's attempt to distinguish the foreign students'issue from DACA: As I read his argument, he seems to be saying that there might have been some doubt about whether DACA was really illegal at all, since it...Last edited by ImmigrationLawBlogs; 07-20-2020, 06:54 AM. -

The point is very simple: ICE's March 13 directive...Last edited by ImmigrationLawBlogs; 07-20-2020, 05:59 AM. -

But with regard to the main issue, Chief Justice Roberts' decision...Last edited by ImmigrationLawBlogs; 07-17-2020, 07:21 PM. -

There is also a third legal doctrine which distinguishes the now withdrawn July 6, 2020 ICE directive on foreign students from its March 2020 predecessor.

According to one commentator, the March, 2020 more flexible ICE rule which allowed foreign students in the US to maintain their status by taking online courses only, is illegal because it was issued through disregard of the APA's notice and opportunity...Last edited by ImmigrationLawBlogs; 07-16-2020, 05:08 PM. -
