I'm excited to announce the public release of A Better Way on Immigration: Principles for America's Future, AILA's vision for how our nation can modernize and right-size our immigration system to better serve America's interests and values. aila.org/library/a-better-wa…

Today’s ruling confirms what AILA has said all along: turning the H-1B program into a pay to play system through a $100K fee is unlawful. Policies that shut out teachers, researchers, rural doctors, clergy, & innovators undermine our economy & communities. reuters.com/world/trumps-100…

It is not in our national interest & does not make America safer to terminate the legal status of hundreds of thousands of people because a handful may have committed crimes. This decision will harm Venezuelans who have no safe home to return to & waste enforcement resources...

"The forthcoming proposed rules were short on details, but appear to be intended to improve the existing system, clarify ambiguities and shore up some of the Biden administration's policy guidance, according to @ShevDD."

This is a game changer that @AILANational has been championing. Allowing for legal representation in the immigration system will allow for faster, fairer and more efficient processing.
USCIS will launch organizational accounts for the FY 2025 H-1B cap season, allowing individuals within an organization and their legal representatives to collaborate on H-1B registrations and Form I-129 H-1B petitions with associated Form I-907. More: uscis.gov/newsroom/news-rele…

We cannot let the conflict take away our humanity.

Instead of the hate-fueled rhetoric spewed by some of our MOCs, this is a right step in the direction by 100+ MOCs to prevent further harm to civilians. thehill.com/homenews/senate/…
With lots of attention on the U.S. southern border, @AILANational’s NEW policy brief examines how visa delays, due to a lack of resources and insufficient funding of the @StateDept and @USCIS, contribute to unauthorized crossings: bit.ly/46bXtbi

Taking on hate is a national priority.
Today, @POTUS and I are announcing the country's first National Strategy to Counter Islamophobia.
This action is the latest step forward in our work to combat a surge of hate in America.
Looking forward to some light weekend reading! Change in the H-1B program is long overdue and @AILANational looks forward to providing feedback on the NPRM to make sure that the program is reflective of the modern day workplace!

"@ShevDD... stated that Canada’s policy directly targets the failures of the U.S. #immigration program and provides an opportunity for #H1B workers who may not have that same opportunity in the United States anymore."
