EXCLUDING 'UNDESIRABLE' IMMIGRANTS: PUBLIC CHARGE AS DISABILITY DISCRIMINATION |
119 Michigan Law Review 1613 (May, 2021) |
Public charge is a ground of inadmissibility based upon the likelihood that a noncitizen will become dependent on government benefits in the future. Once designated as a public charge, a noncitizen is ineligible to be admitted to the United States or to obtain lawful permanent residence. In August 2019, the Trump Administration published a... |

EXECUTIVE DEFIANCE AND THE DEPORTATION STATE |
130 Yale Law Journal 948 (February, 2021) |
A basic assumption in our legal system is that once a federal court issues an order, the government will obey. But the validity of that assumption has been tested over the years, including in the immigration context, and for reasons both related to and separate from the identity of the President. Indeed, understanding the government's... |

FEE SIMPLE FAILURES: RURAL LANDSCAPES AND RACE |
119 Michigan Law Review 1695 (June, 2021) |
Property law's roots are rural. America pursued an early agrarian vision that understood real property rights as instrumental to achieving a country of free, engaged citizens who cared for their communities and stewarded their physical place in it. But we have drifted far from this ideal. Today, American agriculture is industrialized, and rural... |

FRAGILE IMMIGRATION LEGALITY COLLAPSES IN THE TRUMP ERA |
30 Southern California Interdisciplinary Law Journal 305 (Winter 2021) |
People often think of immigration legality in black and white terms--immigrants are documented or undocumented; they are present legally or illegally. There has long been, however, a significant gray area of quasi-legality in the U.S. immigration system. This gray area expanded for decades due to diverging policies of the executive and... |
