Last Thursday, the Senate Judiciary Committee in a 10-8 party-line voted to expand the U visa program as part of legislation to reauthorize the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA), S. 1925. Specifically, S. 1925 would significantly increase the annual number of U visas by permitting the "recapture" of thousands unused visas from prior years.
The Department of Homeland Security announced last week it intends to issue regulations in the coming months to amend several visa programs in order to help aliens find jobs in the U.S. or keep the jobs they have.
Last week, leaders from both the House and Senate Judiciary Committees took action to spotlight the Cook County, IL ordinance that obstructs the deportation of criminal aliens. The ordinance, passed by the Cook County Board of Commissioners last fall, instructs county jails to ignore ICE detainers placed on criminal aliens in local custody and bars ICE access to County facilities for investigative interviews or other purposes.
Last week, the University of Alabama Economist Samuel Addy released a study on the state's immigration enforcement law, HB 56, concluding that the law's costs are greater than its benefits. Specifically, Mr. Addy finds that HB 56 will cause illegal aliens to leave Alabama, leading a "reduction in aggregate demand."
Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court announced it would hear oral arguments on April 25 in the Justice Department's suit against Arizona over its immigration enforcement law, SB 1070.
