Trump administration considers eliminating immigration policy seen as a lifeline for thousands

Mr Sessions says he wants to be heavily involved in cutting down on the backlog facing immigration courts: Mark Wilson/Getty Images

Jeff Sessions is reviewing an judicial policy that could potentially reshape the way immigration courts work and thrust thousands of people’s legal status into question." data-reactid="16">Attorney General Jeff Sessions is reviewing an judicial policy that could potentially reshape the way immigration courts work and thrust thousands of people’s legal status into question.

Mr Sessions is questioning whether he should revoke judge’s ability to conduct “administrative closures” of immigration proceedings, which allow judges to close the cases without a decision.

The announced review comes after Mr Sessions intervened Friday in the case of immigrant Reynaldo Castro-Tum, and could yield results that impact every immigration judge in the federal system.

The review asks whether he should revoke the administrative closures policy, but also asks where there are other mechanisms to address the concerns. He also wants to know if his Justice Department thinks that the 350,000 cases that are currently closed under the policy should be reviewed.

Administrative closures are seen as a lifeline to immigrants in the country as they apply for citizenship, visas, or permanent residency. The closures shield the immigrants from deportation as their other petitions are considered, but have been criticised for allowing immigrants to stay in the country too long.

While there are roughly 350,000 such closures, a majority of those were handed down during just four years of President Barack Obama’s tenure. During those four years, roughly 180,000 administrative closures were granted.

Mr Sessions’ review could have significant impacts on the judges and employees of the Justice Department tasked with reviewing immigration cases. All of those individuals serve the Justice Department’s Executive Office for Immigration Review, which would give Mr Sessions considerable oversight over their actions even if they chose to assert independence.

The potential change comes as the Trump administration considers how to close a hefty backlog of immigration cases that have tied up American immigration courts. There are roughly 650,000 cases waiting to be decided, and Mr Sessions announced last year that he would play a heavy role in figuring out how to reduce that number.

In a memo sent to about 350 immigration judges and their staff in December, Mr Sessions bristled at the notion that reducing that backlog is an untenable goal, and said that the department must work to find legal ways to expedite the processing.

“While we continue to hire additional immigration judges, and support personnel to address these challenges, we must all work to identify and adopt — consistent with the law — additional procedures and techniques that will increase efficiencies, and ensure the timely and proper administration of justice,” he wrote.

President Donald Trump campaigned on the promise to deport undocumented immigrants, and to erect a wall that would keep future immigrants from crossing the US-Mexico border into the United States.

Since taking office, the President and Mr Sessions have overseen an increase in immigrant arrests within the United States compared to his predecessor, Mr Obama, but a decrease in the overall number of deportations. The immigrant arrests have been criticized by immigration advocates who say that, in a break from Obama-era policy, the arrests have been indiscriminate, and have frequently picked up non-violent immigrants or those without criminal backgrounds.

Poster Comment:

I'm guessing that Congress can pass a DACA amnesty deal, quicker than Sessions can get these illegal aliens deported. It's near the top of their TODO list, since the extension to DACA sanctuary expires in March.

What's needed is for government agencies to cooperate with the DOJ & ICE by giving them data on all of the illegal aliens receiving welfare, education, gov cheese, healthcare, drivers licenses, houses, and a host of other enticements to invade the USA and make themselves at home. Theoretically information sharing between gov agencies is supposed to be the reason for DHS, but it's not being used to deport the illegal alien invaders.

The reason is scofflaw administration at the top, aka President Trump.

Sessions has turned into a timid old lady.

Yes, their status should be changed and they should be deported.

Recall some of the hurricane "refugees" who have been here for 8-10 years, long after there was any reason to let them stay, try to have anchor babies, suck up even more welfare.

Cut that "lifeline" (to use the loaded term the Yahoo propagandist sprinkled around his alleged news article).

Ok,lawyers are supposed to be bright people. What's keeping them from writing new regulations that protect the rights of the immigrants who are here legally,while still bouncing the illegals out of the country?

You are either here legally,or you are here illegally. You can't be both.

In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments.

IMO, they don't want the "Dream Students" "Guest Workers" etc to ever leave. Enforcing immigration law and deporting illegal aliens, is out of the question for the D&R party these days. The last time they did was the 1954 Operation Wetback.

They're afraid to deport the invaders so they dither around with executive orders and the courts until Congress legalizes crime by granting amnesty, and the newly minted Amercanos can then proceed to the voting booth to vote for bigger and better D&R party mobsters.

When you figure in chain migration, the 1986 amnesty was YUUUGE!

“Guessing” is all you ever seem to do, isn’t it?

I am not “guessing” when I emphatically state that’s an overly generalized statement you made there, Pilgrim, in your “Poster Comment” summation.

It’s nothing but a pseudointellectual flimflam attack you are making from a shaky soap box against Trump and has absolutely nothing to do with the subject of the article.

Putting your bullshit aside for a moment and since “we” are in the “guessing” mode....I’m “guessing” you can tell me exactly what is wrong with what Sessions is doing.

Sticking to the subject of the “most informative article” you chose to post....can you and will you?

If not....I thought not.

Yes Mr. Attorney General, please review the cases of Gatlin and Donald's Taco Bowl chiefs, and deport them even if it's Cinco de Mayo!

You cannot cover up and hide your gross ignorance by trying to be a smart ass. I asked you a very simple question you did not, and obviously can not, answer. I will repeat the question: Exactly what is wrong with what Sessions is doing?

There is a dire immigration court system backlog. The immigration court system has more than 600,000 cases pending, that’s a record high, with only 334 immigration judges to handle them...and the backlog number increases daily. The average wait time for a hearing is 672 days, nearly two years.

Steps need to be taken to alleviate this heinous backlog. It can be done by either hiring more judges or eliminating immigration judicial policy. The questions are: Which method to reduce the backlog is faster and which will cost less?

Sessions is trying to reduce that backlog....so, I ask for the third time: What’s wrong with the action Sessions is taking here?

The forum awaits your intelligent answer....if you do not have one, then admit it.

I can not comment on the ongoing investigation into Senator McCain's pending deportation to Panama.


Right Before He Fell Asleep, John McCain Did Something So DIRTY To Trump That He Should Be Kicked Out Of Congress

John McCain’s hate for President Trump clearly knows no bounds.

Last night, McCain hit a new low. He used his military career to LIE about President Trump and call him a draft dodger.

In an interview that was supposed to ONLY be about the Vietnam war, McCain decided to go political and attack our President.

Trump was unable to serve in Vietnam due to bone spurs, a fact that has been backed up with several documents and doctors.

It’s not like President Trump didn’t try to join the fight in Vietnam. On Sept. 17, 1968, Donald Trump reported for an armed forces physical examination, but the doctors marked him medically disqualified.

McCain doesn’t care about the facts though, he told C-SPAN:

“One aspect of the conflict, by the way, that I will never ever countenance is that we drafted the lowest-income level of America, and the highest-income level found a doctor that would say that they had a bone spur,” McCain said.
“That is wrong. That is wrong. If we are going to ask every American to serve, every American should serve.”

Even the Trump-hating Washington Post was forced to admit that Trump was telling the truth about his health issue writing,

“bone spurs (“a calcium deposit causing a bony protrusion on the underside of the heel bone”) are a somewhat common reason for such deferments.”

John McCain’s Trump Derangement Syndrome has officially become out of control. How dare he attack our President’s integrity and patriotism!

His vile loathing for our Commander in Chief has clouded his judgment and made him unable to perform the duties required of a United States Senator.

He needs to leave the Senate IMMEDIATELY!

I will ask for the fourth time: What’s wrong with the action Sessions is taking here?

The forum is still waiting your intelligent answer....if you do not have one, then admit it.

I did not ask you anything about McCain....I ONLY asked you about Sessions.

What your anti-Trump maggot-ridden ass thought you had here was a “hit piece” on Sessions. One that you could ambush the Trump supporters here on the forum with. Which you figured would gain you sympathy support for your agenda because the Sessions’ name has now become somewhat inflammatory. But that failed because your loaded ambush firearm exploded in your face due to a 'squib' round.

I will now leave you to wallow in your embarrassed misery with still the unanswered question: What’s wrong with the action Sessions is taking here?
