A new analysis concludes that the Supreme Court's recent decision limiting President Trump’s tariff authority is unlikely to invalidate the administration’s $100,000 H-1B entry fee, despite a recent federal district court ruling to the contrary.
CIS Analysis Says Result Will Be Stronger Interior Enforcement
The Supreme Court today ruled that, with only narrow exceptions, children born in the United States are U.S. citizens regardless of their parents' immigration status. A new analysis from the Center for Immigration Studies examines the decision's legal reasoning and its likely impact on immigration policy - it is likely to intensify calls for stronger immigration enforcement.
Two new analyses by Center for Immigration Studies Senior Legal Fellow George Fishman conclude that a recent court ruling correctly reaffirms a fundamental constitutional principle: Congress, not the executive branch, writes the nation's immigration laws.
This new report finds that households headed by non-citizens access means-tested welfare programs at substantially higher rates than households headed by U.S.-born Americans in virtually every state.
Interview with the head of America’s largest law enforcement agency

Credit policy changes under Trump II and blame a lack of initial screening under Biden
Expect asylum denials to increase and grants to decline, both in real numbers and as a percentage of total decisions, at least as long as Trump is president. Part of that has to do with an effort by DOJ under Trump II to tighten the asylum rules, but you can fault the Biden administration, as well: Its migrant “catch and release” policies left IJs with a lot of bad asylum claims to reject.
Appellate board gives a quick tutorial on how IJs should make credibility determinations — and how not to.
In countless interactions, from personal relationships to business ones, we all operate under a baseline rule: Don’t trust a liar, especially when the benefits of lying are great and the downsides limited. Thanks to the BIA, immigration judges can now follow that fundamental rule of human existence in their courtrooms, as well.
Gov. Tim Walz (D) is back in the immigration spotlight over ‘a type of crime that is widely reviled’
Perhaps the governor, attorney general, and Mayor Frey could spend more time integrating newcomers in their state and less time lecturing immigration officers, but regardless, Walz and Ellison have lost any moral authority they had claimed back in January over ICE on enforcement.

Mullin wants less talk and more action on deportation, and the Times notes he’s “pledged to mount a quieter enforcement campaign” than his predecessor. But as the paper’s own reporting suggests, “quieter” doesn’t necessarily equate to fewer arrests and deportations — just less publicized ones. Now, let’s see the results.
