The panel discusses current issues related to immigrants’ rights including a law suit challenging the practice of using video conferences in removal proceedings, and law suits that challenge President Trump’s emergency declaration. Our guests are Professor Phil Torrey and Professor Kari Hong who discuss Matter of Soram and current litigation pertaining to the crime of “child abuse, child neglect or child abandonment” as a ground for removal.
