  1. The high personal and economic cost of our broken immigration system

    While the political winds seem to be propelling the first comprehensive immigration reform in more than a quarter-century, every day our broken immigration system takes a cruel and little-noticed toll on countless hardworking, law-abiding individuals and their families. On any given day, approximately 34,000 immigrants are behind bars and more than 1,000 are deported — often for minor, technical violations of laws that are too byzantine for all but the most seasoned immigration lawyers to understand.

  4. Unlocking immigrant detention reform

    The U.S. Department of Homeland Security now incarcerates, via immigration detention, more people per year than any other state or federal agency. In 2012, the DHS detained over 429,000 noncitizens awaiting immigration hearings or deportation, at a $2 billion cost to taxpayers. Yet the DHS' new risk assessment technology, which comprehensively and individually assesses immigrant detainees and collects valuable data, makes it possible for Congress to improve detention practices while reforming broader U.S. immigration laws. With this risk assessment technology — piloted in Baltimore and Washington since September — Congress can now effectively decriminalize immigration detention without increasing risk to the American public.
