Included in the list is why administrative closure is requested and if the individual may be eligible for immigration relief with USCIS. For case termination, specific instances are also noted, however, the Department...

Garland that convictions for both accessory after the fact and attempting to dissuade victims from reporting sexual misconduct are crimes serious enough to make a person eligible for permanent removal. Lawyers for the plaintiffs in the case said that obstruction of justice requires there to be an open investigation,...

Two left-wing nonprofits have combined to rake in hundreds of millions of dollars in taxpayer-backed government contracts since President Biden took office, with a vast majority of the money going towards efforts to keep illegal immigrants in the United States, records reviewed by Fox News Digital shows.

The “Empowering States to Deport Illegal Immigrants Act” would grant state and local law enforcement officers the power to carry out certain federal immigration laws.

The bill would effectively nullify a 2012 Supreme Court decision which significantly hamstrung states’ ability to enforce immigration laws. The aim of Hawley’s bill is to give states the power to deploy their resources for immigration enforcement.

Ok, maybe not more cowbell, but a complete overhaul of the system – “comprehensive immigration reform” – which is code, or “dog whistle,” to put it in terms Democrats will understand, for amnesty. Sure, it would also involve a lot of other things progressives leftists admit we need to “fix” about the system, but without amnesty, they aren’t interested in any of it. Which goes to show you that, in fact, the immigration system is not broken, Democrats are....

The Biden administration has made a big deal about organizing swift deportations of illegal border crossers in Del Rio, Texas, where large numbers of mostly Haitians have set up a huge, squalid, fourth-world shantytown on the Texas side, the biggest such migrant camp in U.S. history.

LAS VEGAS — In a court ruling with potentially broad implications for U.S. immigration cases, a federal judge in Nevada found that a criminal law that dates to 1929 and makes it a felony for a person who has been deported to return to the United States is unconstitutional. U.S. District Judge Miranda Du in Reno, in an order issued Wednesday, found the law widely known as Section 1326 is based on “racist, nativist roots” and discriminates against Mexican and Latinx people in violation of the equal protection clause of the Fifth Amendment. Section 1326 of the Immigration and Nationality...
