Stephen H. Legomsky E Pluribus Unum: Immigration, Race, and Other Deep Divides 21 Southern Illinois University Law Journal 101 (Fall, 1996) On every United States coin there are engraved the Latin words e pluribus unum.

Jason A. Cade Enforcing Immigration Equity 84 Fordham Law Review 661 (November, 2015) Congressional amendments to the immigration code in the 1990s significantly broadened grounds for removal while nearly eradicating opportunities for discretionary relief.

Jenny-Brooke Condon Equal Protection Exceptionalism 69 Rutgers University Law Review 563 (Winter, 2017) Equal protection doctrine addressed to immigrants' rights is thoroughly exceptional. It is an amalgam of super-deference, suspect class treatment, and even intermediate scrutiny, depending upon whether immigrants are present in the United States lawfully or not, and whether a state or federal classification is at issue. No other area of equal... 2017
