- Previewing what the immigration climate may look like under President Biden’s administration.
- Assessing the likelihood of substantive H-1B reform under the Biden administration, and how quickly this may occur.
- Reviewing the December 1st federal court ruling against the Trump administration’s Interim Final Rules which restricted H-1B visas, and discussing whether this decision is likely to be appealed.
- Analyzing how Biden’s U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security nominee Alejandro Mayorkas might approach the position differently than his predecessor.
- Assessing the likelihood of comprehensive immigration reform to legalize undocumented workers.
