Immigration is perennially in the news and the topic is often grist for heated debates. But what are the rules governing immigration? Who gets to come and where does one join the “line”? This CLE presentation explores United States immigration law, including the current structure, challenges, and outlook for the future. Immigration is governed by a complex yet outdated statutory structure that delegates broad discretionary authority to the Executive branch. Frequently changing agency policy can significantly impact rights and the availability of benefits under the law. Increasingly, state legislatures are enacting immigration-related laws that impact a broad range of issues including employment, land ownership, acquisition of an existing business, enforcement of criminal laws, driver’s licenses, and family law. Consideration of a party’s immigration status and understanding immigration law are essential ... even for attorneys who do not practice immigration law. This CLE program features streaming video and downloadable audio presentations from a seminar by the Houston Bar Association (HBA) on January 26, 2024.
