61 Boston College Law Review 1967 (June, 2020) |
The United States is a proud nation of immigrants, with a short memory. As the country's need for immigrant labor continues unabated, legislative reaction to these labor demands is myopic. It is undisputed that the American desire for cheap labor incentivizes the migration of unskilled and undocumented guest workers. As long as market demand for... |

10 Asian Law Journal 13 (May, 2003) |
The nation is mired in immigration reform debates again. Leaders vow that this time will be different.

For the past few decades, and increasingly in the past few years, U.S. state governments have supplemented federal immigration law with state laws overtly designed to combat the perceived ills stemming from undocumented immigration to the United States.

Immigration Policy and Immigration Flows: a Comparative Analysis of Immigration Law in the U.s. and Argentina |
3 Modern American 46 (Summer-Fall, 2007) |
In early 2012, the Department of Labor took an unexpected step in support of immigrant workers, changing the way H-2B visas are issued to make it harder both to hire and to exploit immigrant workers. The changes in regulation were the result of years of hard work by advocates for both Union workers, and immigrants. However, by the end of the summer... |
