It makes a joke of the U visa to offer protection to people who are "victims" one day, felons the next.

A list of some of the most important policy changes that could be implemented to restore the integrity of our immigration system.

An advance press briefing last week teased that at tonight’s State of the Union address the president would move beyond the current border-security wrangling and offer a grand, new vision for moving forward on immigration, involving something Trump has not said before.

Border barriers can do more than just curb the traffic of aliens and drugs entering this country illegally; they can help to protect the lives of those who protect us.

The inordinate emphasis on alternatives to detaining illegal aliens in proceedings will result in increased costs, decreased compliance with the law, and no deterrence of prospective future illegal aliens.

The proposal would cut funding for detention so much that ICE couldn't even hold all the hardened criminals it encounters, neatly shifting the blame for their release away from the sanctuary jurisdictions.

As long as the United States ignores the need to reform its entry/exit enforcement mechanism, visa overstays will continue to grow as the greatest source of illegal immigration.

A recent visit to California and Arizona shows that form follows function regarding the specific style of barrier that is being used at different parts of the border.

Only a physical barrier prevents aliens from entering illegally and then taking advantage of our weak credible-fear and asylum laws; those are the loopholes that are crushing the system. Unless a "smart wall" comes with real, substantive asylum law changes, the whole thing is a massive shell game.

After two years in office, the Trump administration has finally released its long awaited H-1B regulations. These regulations might best be called "The Swamp Has Taken Over the Trump Administration."
