una serie de ordenes ejecutivas, pretendiendo promover &ldquo;seguridad p&uacute;blica&rdquo; y &ldquo;seguridad fronteriza,&rdquo; varios de ellas afectan profundamente c&oacute;mo la nueva administraci&oacute;n har&aacute; cumplir la ley migratoria. &nbsp;Las ordenes del Presidente tienen que ver con las prioridades del cumplimiento de las leyes migratorias, la colaboraci&oacute;n de polic&iacute;a local con inmigraci&oacute;n y la publicaci&oacute;n p&uacute;blica de datos de cr&iacute;menes cometidos por inmigrantes.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />Primero, las prioridades de cumplimento &ndash; efectivas inmediatamente &ndash; convierten a todos los no ciudadanos &ldquo;deportable&rdquo; &ndash; incluso residentes permanentes &ndash; en prioridades principales si: (1) han estado declarado culpable por <em>cualquier</em> delito; (2) han estado &ldquo;acusado de&rdquo; <em>cualquier</em> crimen aun si la acusaci&oacute;n no se ha resuelto; (3) han &ldquo;cometido actos que constituyen un delito criminal&rdquo;, potencialmente aun si los cargos no se han presentados; o (4) si &ldquo;[e]n la opini&oacute;n de un agente de inmigraci&oacute;n, [ellos] de otra manera conllevan un riesgo para la seguridad p&uacute;blica o seguridad nacional.&rdquo;&nbsp; Esto es una enorme expansi&oacute;n de las prioridades de cumplimiento de la previa administraci&oacute;n y representa una amenaza seria y perturbador para todos los no ciudadanos que han tenido o podr&iacute;an tener contacto con la polic&iacute;a por todas partes en los Estados Unidos.<br />&nbsp;<br />Peor a&uacute;n, Presidente Trump ha declarado que el poder ejecutiva confiere poderes a polic&iacute;a local para aplicar las leyes migratorias al &ldquo;m&aacute;ximo grado permitido por la ley.&rdquo;&nbsp; Al hacerlo, le ha ordenado que el Ministerio del Departamento de Seguridad Nacional trabaje con polic&iacute;a local para que se firmen acuerdo de &ldquo;287(g)&rdquo; que permite que los polic&iacute;as locales investiguen y detengan a no ciudadanos para agentes de inmigraci&oacute;n.&nbsp; Actualmente los condados de Fredrick y Harford son los &uacute;nicos participantes en el programa en Maryland.&nbsp; Presidente Trump, adem&aacute;s, le ha dicho a los oficiales del Departamento de Seguridad Nacional que identifiquen &ldquo;jurisdicciones santuario&rdquo; y dejar de proveerles subsidios federales.&nbsp; El Procurador General y Ministerio del Departamento de Seguridad Nacional, finalmente, ahora tienen la obligaci&oacute;n de coleccionar datos y publicar informes acerca de &ldquo;el estatus migratorio de todos los extranjeros encarcelados en prisiones estatales y centros de detenci&oacute;n&rdquo; en los EE.UU.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />Estas nuevas pol&iacute;ticas migratorias van a tener un impacto profundo en los no ciudadanos y sus familias en los Estados Unidos.&nbsp; Si usted tiene preguntas o dudas acerca de cambios anticipados en la pol&iacute;tica y la ley migratoria que puede afectar su caso o su estatus migratorio, llame el Bufete de Adam N. Crandell para programar una consulta. &nbsp;Analizaremos su caso en su totalidad y proporcionarle con una evaluaci&oacute;n completa y honesta de sus circunstancias a la luz de todos los cambios anticipados bajo la nueva administraci&oacute;n.<br /></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[President Trump's new executive orders on immigration are a nightmare for noncitizens]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.crandellimmigrationlaw.com/blog/president-trumps-new-executive-orders-on-immigration-are-a-nightmare-for-noncitizens]]></link><comments><![CDATA[http://www.crandellimmigrationlaw.com/blog/president-trumps-new-executive-orders-on-immigration-are-a-nightmare-for-noncitizens#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Fri, 27 Jan 2017 19:02:17 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.crandellimmigrationlaw.com/blog/president-trumps-new-executive-orders-on-immigration-are-a-nightmare-for-noncitizens</guid><description><![CDATA[At the end of January 2017, President Trump signed a series of executive orders purporting to promote &ldquo;public safety&rdquo; and &ldquo;border security,&rdquo; several of which deeply impact how immigration laws will be enforced under the new administration.&nbsp; The President&rsquo;s orders involve ICE enforcement priorities, state and local law enforcement collaboration with ICE, and the reporting of data regarding crimes committed by immigrants.&nbsp;First, the new broadly phrased ICE e [...] ]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="paragraph">At the end of January 2017, President Trump signed a series of <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2017/01/26/us/trump-immigration-deportation.html" target="_blank">executive orders</a> purporting to promote &ldquo;public safety&rdquo; and &ldquo;border security,&rdquo; several of which deeply impact how immigration laws will be enforced under the new administration.&nbsp; The President&rsquo;s orders involve ICE enforcement priorities, state and local law enforcement collaboration with ICE, and the reporting of data regarding crimes committed by immigrants.<br />&nbsp;<br />First, the new broadly phrased ICE enforcement priorities &ndash; effective immediately &ndash; make all &ldquo;removable&rdquo; noncitizens &ndash; including LPRs &ndash; top priorities for deportation if they: (1) have been convicted of <em>any</em> crime; (2) have been &ldquo;charged with&rdquo; <em>any</em> crime where such charge has not been resolved; (3) have &ldquo;committed acts that constitute a chargeable criminal offense,&rdquo; potentially even if charges have not actually been filed; or (4) if &ldquo;[i]n the judgment of an immigration officer, [they] otherwise pose a risk to public safety or national security.&rdquo; &nbsp;This is an enormous expansion of the previous administration&rsquo;s priority categories and represents a serious and troubling threat to any noncitizen who has had or may have contact with law enforcement anywhere in the United States.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />Worse yet, President Trump furthermore declared that the executive branch will empower state and local law enforcement to enforce federal immigration laws &ldquo;to the maximum extent permitted by law.&rdquo;&nbsp; In doing so, he has directed the Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security (&ldquo;DHS&rdquo;) to work with state and local law enforcement to enter into the &ldquo;287(g)&rdquo; agreements which allow local officers to investigate and detain noncitizens for ICE.&nbsp; Currently, Frederick and Harford County are the only participants in the program in Maryland.&nbsp; President Trump, moreover, has told DHS to identify &ldquo;sanctuary jurisdictions&rdquo; and stop giving them federal grants. &nbsp;Finally, the Attorney General and Secretary of DHS have been told to collect data and publicly release reports on &ldquo;the immigration status of all convicted aliens incarcerated in State prisons and local detention centers&rdquo; in the U.S.<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />These new immigration policies will likely have a significant impact on noncitizens and their families in the United States.&nbsp; If you have questions or concerns about changes in immigration law and policy that may affect your case or your immigration status, call the Law Office of Adam N.

Antes de convertirse en senador, Sessions trabaj&oacute; como un fiscal federal para el distrito sure&ntilde;o de Alabama. En el 18 de noviembre, Sessions fue nominado por presidente electo Donald Trump para ser el <a href="https://www.democracynow.org/es/2016/11/18/titulares/trump_picks_alabama_senator_jeff_sessions_for_attorney_general">pr&oacute;ximo Procurador General</a> de los Estados Unidos.<br />&nbsp;<br />Durante su carrera, Sessions ha patrocinado creencias que ponen en duda su respeto para la justicia y para gente de otras razas, nacionalidades y religiones. Por ejemplo, Sessions fue denegado un puesto como juez federal despu&eacute;s de que sus colegas testificaron ante el Comit&eacute; Judicial del Senado que Sessions le hab&iacute;a hablado irrespetuosamente a un abogado negro y brome&oacute; que pens&oacute; que <a href="http://www.laprensa.hn/mundo/1017035-410/ku-klux-klan-convoca-desfile-para-celebrar-victoria-de-trump">el Ku Klux Klan</a> est&aacute; &ldquo;<a href="https://www.democracynow.org/es/2016/11/18/titulares/trump_picks_alabama_senator_jeff_sessions_for_attorney_general">bien</a>&rdquo;. Adem&aacute;s, Sessions ha abogado contra avances en igualdad racial y de g&eacute;nero, derechos de voto y <a href="http://www.gerencie.com/debido-proceso.html">el debido proceso</a> para los inmigrantes. De hecho, Sessions ha luchado contra la pr&aacute;ctica reforma migratoria, mientras exigiendo que se imponga restricciones dr&aacute;sticas en las visas y que se expanda el cumplimiento de inmigraci&oacute;n. En 2006, Sessions reclam&oacute; ante el Congreso estadounidense que &ldquo;casi nadie&rdquo; viniendo a los EE.UU. desde la Rep&uacute;blica Dominicana ten&iacute;a &ldquo;<a href="http://eldiariony.com/2016/11/20/el-fiscal-de-trump-califico-a-dominicanos-como-inutiles-para-eeuu/">una habilidad demostrable, que nos beneficie</a>&rdquo;, y acus&oacute; falsamente a todos los inmigrantes dominicanos de crear documentos falsos para entrar al EE.UU.<br />&nbsp;<br />Como Procurador General, <a href="http://immigrationimpact.com/2016/11/18/jeff-sessions-immigration-policy/">la influencia de Sessions en la ley migratoria</a> ser&iacute;a de amplio enlace. Sessions, por ejemplo, podr&iacute;a unilateralmente revocar las decisiones de la junta de revisi&oacute;n m&aacute;s alta acerca de la protecci&oacute;n de persecuci&oacute;n y el an&aacute;lisis de las leyes penales federales y estatales. Adicionalmente, &eacute;l podr&iacute;a implementar medidas para impedir el acceso a la representaci&oacute;n legal para los inmigrantes. Y, como Procurador General, Sessions ser&iacute;a autorizado para empoderar polic&iacute;a local para trabajar como oficiales migratorios as&iacute; aumentando enormemente la aplicaci&oacute;n de las leyes migratorias existentes.<br />&nbsp;<br />Si usted tiene preguntas o dudas acerca de cambios anticipados en la pol&iacute;tica y la ley migratoria que puede afectar su caso o su estatus migratorio, llame el Bufete de Adam N. Crandell para programar una consulta. Analizaremos su caso en su totalidad y proporcionarle con una evaluaci&oacute;n completa y honesta de sus circunstancias a la luz de todos los cambios anticipados bajo la nueva administraci&oacute;n.<br />&nbsp;<br />Este art&iacute;culo fue investigado y co escrito por el asistente legal Daniel Schutrum-Boward (University of Maryland Carey School of Law, 2018).&nbsp;<br /></div>]]></content:encoded></item><item><title><![CDATA[Why Donald Trump's pick for Attorney General is a threat to non-citizens living in the United States]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.crandellimmigrationlaw.com/blog/why-attorney-general-jeff-sessions-is-a-threat-to-non-citizens-living-in-the-united-states]]></link><comments><![CDATA[http://www.crandellimmigrationlaw.com/blog/why-attorney-general-jeff-sessions-is-a-threat-to-non-citizens-living-in-the-united-states#comments]]></comments><pubDate>Mon, 28 Nov 2016 20:13:59 GMT</pubDate><category><![CDATA[Uncategorized]]></category><guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.crandellimmigrationlaw.com/blog/why-attorney-general-jeff-sessions-is-a-threat-to-non-citizens-living-in-the-united-states</guid><description><![CDATA[Jefferson Beauregard "Jeff" Sessions III,&nbsp;born in 1946 in Selma, Alabama, is currently a Republican U.S. Senator from Alabama and is viewed as one of the most&nbsp;conservative&nbsp;members of the Senate.&nbsp; Before becoming a U.S. Senator, Sessions served as a&nbsp;U.S. Attorney&nbsp;for the Southern District of Alabama.&nbsp; On November 18, 2016,&nbsp;Sessions was nominated by President-Elect Donald Trump to be&nbsp;Attorney General&nbsp;of the United States.&nbsp;&nbsp;During Sessions [...] ]]></description><content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class="paragraph"><a target="_blank" href="http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/19/us/politics/jeff-sessions-donald-trump-attorney-general.html">Jefferson Beauregard "Jeff" Sessions III</a>,&nbsp;born in 1946 in Selma, Alabama, is currently a Republican U.S. Senator from Alabama and is viewed as one of the most&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/19/us/politics/jeff-sessions-donald-trump-attorney-general.html">conservative</a>&nbsp;members of the Senate.&nbsp; Before becoming a U.S. Senator, Sessions served as a&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://www.sessions.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/biography">U.S. Attorney</a>&nbsp;for the Southern District of Alabama.&nbsp; On November 18, 2016,&nbsp;Sessions was nominated by President-Elect Donald Trump to be&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.greatagain.gov/news/president-elect-donald-j-trump-selects-us-senator-jeff-sessions-attorney-general-lt-gen-michael.html">Attorney General</a>&nbsp;of the United States.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />During Sessions' career, he has espoused beliefs that call into question his respect for justice and for people of other races, nationalities, and creeds. &nbsp;For example, Sessions was once&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://www.nytimes.com/2016/11/19/us/politics/jeff-sessions-donald-trump-attorney-general.html">denied a position as a federal judge</a>&nbsp;after colleagues testified before a Senate Judiciary Committee that he had&nbsp;spoken disrespectfully to a black lawyer&nbsp;and joked that the KKK was "OK." &nbsp;Sessions has also advocated against advancements in racial and gender equality, voting rights,&nbsp;and due process for immigrants.&nbsp; In fact, Sessions has consistently&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://immigrationimpact.com/2016/11/18/jeff-sessions-immigration-policy/">fought against practical immigration reform</a>, while calling for drastic restrictions on visas and expansion of immigration enforcement.&nbsp; In 2006, Sessions claimed before the U.S. Senate that "almost no one" coming to the U.S. from the Dominican Republic had a&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/jeff-sessions-dominican-immigrants_us_582f9d14e4b030997bbf8ded">"provable skill that would benefit us,"</a>&nbsp;and falsely accused all Dominican immigrants of creating fake documents in order to enter the U.S.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />As Attorney General,&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://immigrationimpact.com/2016/11/18/jeff-sessions-immigration-policy/">Sessions' influence on immigration law would be</a>&nbsp;far-reaching. Sessions, for example, could single-handedly revoke the highest immigration review board's decisions on protection from persecution and analysis of state and federal criminal statutes. &nbsp;Additionally, he could implement measures to&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://immigrationimpact.com/2016/11/18/jeff-sessions-immigration-policy/">hinder access to legal representation</a>&nbsp;for immigrants. And, as Attorney General, Sessions would be authorized to&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="http://immigrationimpact.com/2016/11/18/jeff-sessions-immigration-policy/">empower local law enforcement</a>&nbsp;officials to work as immigration agents, thereby vastly increasing enforcement of existing immigration laws.&nbsp;<br />&nbsp;<br />If you have questions or concerns about expected changes in immigration law and policy that may affect your case or your immigration status, call the Law Office of Adam N.
